Kiturami Group’s scholarship program is not a one-off initiative. Launched in 1985, rooted in Chairman Choi Jinmin’s belief that “educational opportunities should be equal for everyone,” it has become a representative long-term social contribution activity, consistently carried out in various cities and counties nationwide. Over nearly 40 years, this scholarship program has not only provided countless students with opportunities for academic advancement but has also contributed to narrowing educational gaps between regions. The scholarship support in Hoengseong County is part of this ongoing effort and is recognized as a valuable example of the community and business working together to support the growth of future generations.


Kim Myunggi, the Governor of Hoengseong County, expressed his gratitude, saying, “I deeply thank Chairman Choi Jinmin of Kiturami Group for helping ensure that local students do not have to give up on their dreams due to financial difficulties. It is truly meaningful that students can now prepare for their futures in a more stable environment.”


The recipients of the scholarship also expressed deep gratitude and a sense of responsibility. One student shared, “Knowing that my community believes in and supports me gives me great strength. I want to study even harder and become an adult who gives back to society the support I have received.”


In addition to educational support, Kiturami Group has consistently engaged in a variety of social contribution activities. The company provides practical assistance across society, including support for vulnerable groups, sponsorship of welfare facilities, and support for youth and academic research, thereby fulfilling its value of “growing together through sharing.” Kiturami Group plans to continue its social contribution efforts to grow alongside the local community in the future.



This scholarship support in Hoengseong County is more than just financial assistance; it is a precious gift that embodies “faith in the future” and the idea of “nurturing talent together as a community.” Many hope that the students will cherish this warm gesture and grow into leaders who guide their region forward.
