Jung Yunmo, the full-time vice chairman of Kbiz, stated, “To attract young and talented individuals to promising SMEs and ensure the continuous development of our economy, it is necessary to correct the misconceptions about SMEs. SMEs offer opportunities to learn how an entire company operates and develop management skills, making them a good choice for those considering a long-term career. Kbiz operates the Really Good SME Platform, which introduces over 30,000 SMEs verified by the central and local governments. We will continue to strive to promote good jobs and foster a positive perception of SMEs.”
