Through the video, the Korea Economic Association proposed reducing disposable plastics such as plastic cups, plastic bags, and packaging containers, which are excessively used for convenience.



Chairman Ryu participated in the BBP Challenge following the nomination by Chey Tae-won, Chairman of SK Group, who joined the campaign last month as Chairman of the Korea Chamber of Commerce and Industry. Ryu nominated Park Chan-ho, the first Korean Major League Baseball player, and Cho Hyun-jae, Chairman of the Korea Sports Promotion Foundation, as the next participants.
