He continued, "Through the review of the interest rate and fee system calculation methods last March, we must empathize with customers' difficulties and establish a system that conveys our sincerity well to all stakeholders," adding, "Like 'Travel Log,' which has surpassed 3 million subscribers, our sincerity, which is based on 'cherishing even one customer's joy,' must be the foundation."

Finally, he said, "We have a mission to inherit the precious legacy of our predecessors who have devoted themselves as the foundation, nurture its value well, and further develop it to successfully pass it on to future generations," and added, "Let us wholeheartedly dedicate ourselves to everyone, share together, add hope, and wisely overcome challenges through kind finance, creating a foundation for the group's new century."
