Gwangju Employers Federation

The Gwangju Employers Federation (Chairman Yang Jinseok, Chairman of Howon Co., Ltd. and Happiness CC) announced on the 18th that it will hold a Friday Breakfast Forum by inviting explorer Kim Hyunkook, who became the first person in the world to cross Siberia solo on a motorcycle.

The Friday Breakfast Forum, to be held on the 3rd floor of Holiday Inn Gwangju Hotel on the 21st, will be conducted under the theme "The Birth of an Explorer, the Eurasian Continental Road."

Kim Hyunkook is the director of the World Exploration Culture Research Institute and the first Korean full member of The Explorers Club, the world's leading explorer organization.

As an explorer who appeared on the EBS World Theme Travel program, Kim will share his experiences accumulated from crossing the Eurasian continent six times. In particular, he will explain the long journey from Seoul, through Siberia, to Amsterdam, based on data collected during his Eurasian explorations. He is expected to emphasize the significance of Eurasia, which holds political, economic, cultural, and social potential, beyond its beautiful natural landscapes.

He will also share his experiences traveling in India, discovering business ideas at Moscow's Red Square, living in Japan, and the differences in perception during his military service, as well as his worldview and how he discovered new business opportunities in Russia.

Yang Jinseok, Chairman of the Gwangju Employers Federation, said, "The inspiring lecture by explorer Kim Hyunkook, who has walked a single path without giving up for over 30 years toward the unknown, will be a great opportunity for member companies of the Gwangju Employers Federation, local small business owners, and SMEs to overcome the current challenging business environment."
