[Asia Economy Reporter Buaeri] KB Financial Group announced on the 15th that it held the first honey harvesting event at the 'K-Bee Urban Apiary' established on the rooftop of the KB Kookmin Bank headquarters.

Employees, along with swimming national representative Hwang Sun-woo and KLPGA professional golfer Lee Ye-won, participated in the event.

The participants collected 60kg of wildflower honey from six beehives and completed 230 souvenir bottles. These souvenirs will be distributed to small business owners and residents near the Yeouido headquarters.

KB Financial Group is conducting the ‘K-Bee Project’ to support the restoration of the honeybee ecosystem, whose population is rapidly declining due to climate change and other factors. The ‘K-Bee Urban Apiary’ was also established on the rooftop of the main building of the KB Kookmin Bank headquarters. Currently, about 120,000 honeybees inhabit the urban apiary, collecting wild honey while traveling around the Han River and Saetgang areas.
