Through this, in collaboration with the Busan Cultural Center, a year-end cultural sharing event was held for socially marginalized youth and disadvantaged groups in the local community.

Since 2018, Shinsegae Duty Free Busan Branch has supported living expenses and scholarships for disadvantaged youth in Haeundae-gu using funds raised through the Hope Delivery Campaign. This year, in cooperation with the Busan Community Chest of Korea, it donated scholarships worth approximately 2 million KRW to ensure students in educational blind spots have sufficient learning opportunities.

Meanwhile, in May, Shinsegae Duty Free Busan Branch collaborated with the Together Foundation to donate eco-friendly jump ropes to local children's centers. About 78 employees of the Busan branch participated in assembling the eco-friendly upcycled jump ropes and delivered them to the centers, using approximately 1.3 million KRW in donations.
