The two institutions selected as excellent organizations this time have contributed to improving the accessibility and efficiency of smoking cessation services by encouraging participation in the programs and providing counseling spaces.

Park Inuk, Director of Western Production at Hyundai Himms, stated, "I believe that employee safety and health are the best forms of welfare," and added, "We will actively cooperate in health promotion activities in the workplace."

Choi Yuri, Director of the Jeonnam Smoking Cessation Support Center and Professor of Family Medicine at Hwasun Chonnam National University Hospital, said, "This selection as excellent institutions is an exemplary case of cooperation for vulnerable groups in smoking cessation," and added, "We will continue to work with the local community to create healthy residential and work environments."
