On the 25th, the company announced that it has signed a main sponsorship contract with professional golfer Yang Hee-young, who is a national representative for the 2024 Paris Olympics. Yang Hee-young will serve as a promotional ambassador for Kiwoom Securities. She will wear hats and clothing bearing the Kiwoom Securities logo during competitions. The company plans to enhance its brand awareness through this partnership. After learning that Yang Hee-young did not have a sponsor, Kiwoom Securities proactively offered support, leading to the contract being finalized before the opening of the Paris Olympics.

Yang Hee-young debuted on the Korea Ladies Professional Golf Association (KLPGA) Tour in 2006 and secured her first win on the U.S. Ladies Professional Golf Association (LPGA) Tour in 2013. She has a total of 6 LPGA Tour wins, 2 Ladies European Tour (LET) wins, and 1 KLPGA Tour win. She is currently ranked 4th in the world and will participate in the Paris Olympics next month.

Um Joo-sung, CEO of Kiwoom Securities, said, "We are pleased to provide a foundation that allows Yang Hee-young to do her best at the Olympics," adding, "Kiwoom Securities will work hard with the public to ensure that the value of the sweat shed by national athletes is valued up." Yang Hee-young expressed her gratitude, saying, "I am happy to have a strong sponsor. I will do my best to repay the support I have received by focusing on the Olympics and the tour."

Kiwoom Securities contributes to expanding the domestic sports base through its main sponsorship of the Kiwoom Heroes professional baseball team, the Kiwoom Securities High School Alumni Golf Championship, and support for professional golfer Bae Sang-moon.
