Park Jungsu, Director of the Financial Supervisory Service Gyeongnam Branch, stated, “We will deliver content that is easy to understand and highly helpful for youth interested in economics and finance in their daily lives and financial career paths. In the future, we plan to promote various financial education programs targeting not only youth but also job seekers, the elderly, and people with disabilities, who are financially vulnerable groups in the region.”
