It aims to provide tailored knowledge services through experts in each field, helping high-net-worth individuals efficiently respond to and manage changing market conditions.

The first session was structured around three topics. The first lecture, delivered by Heechan Park, Head of the Research Center at Mirae Asset Securities, focused on "Economic Outlook and Investment Strategies for the Second Half of the Year," presenting key risk factors through analysis of domestic and international economic environments and proposing investment strategies for the latter half of the year. The second lecture, given by Yoonseok Jung, PB Director at WM Gangnam Finance Center, introduced the latest investment trends reflecting essential considerations and characteristics of various global assets under the theme "Asset Allocation Strategies for High-Net-Worth Individuals." The third lecture featured artist Kyunghee Lee, Vice Chair of the Women's Division of the Korea Fine Arts Association, who was invited to speak on "Meeting the Artist and the Worldview of Her Works." Kyunghee Lee is an artist known for her elegant Korean beauty expressed through moon jars woven with hemp and mother-of-pearl moon jars. She has been active in various countries including the United States (Miami SCOPE), France, and Japan, and is preparing for an exhibition at the Dubai Art Fair at the end of September.

The first session was hosted by Sonbiya Kim, CEO of Gallery Mom and adjunct professor at Kyung Hee University Graduate School of Business.
