This initiative will take place from December 3 to December 18, for two weeks on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays (excluding public holidays, for a total of eight days), from 8 a.m. to 10 a.m. at the student cafeteria on the second floor of the Student Union Building. The menu has been prepared after a nutritional review and a preference survey conducted by the Food and Nutrition major at Duksung Women's University.


The "1,000 Won Breakfast" program at Duksung Women's University has been in place since the first semester of the 2023 academic year. This time, it will also be offered to a total of 1,000 students, with 125 students served each day on a first-come, first-served basis. Of the 5,000 won meal cost, 4,000 won is subsidized by the Korea Agency of Education, Promotion and Information Service in Food, Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries, the Seoul Metropolitan Government, Dobong District Office, and other government and local authorities, while students pay only 1,000 won.



Kim Jonggil, Acting President, stated, "Not only the government but also local governments are showing great interest in preventing students from skipping meals, and Duksung Women's University is continuously participating with the same mindset." He added, "We hope that even a small but warm meal will help students start their day with energy."
