The Corporate Accompaniment Garden is a project that expresses a company's management philosophy and social contribution values through a public space, specifically a garden. Under this agreement, Hoban Construction plans to establish the Corporate Accompaniment Garden in the lawn plaza area of Seoul Forest in Seongdong-gu, Seoul.

With the theme of "The Aesthetics of Coexistence," Hoban Construction aims to create a space where trees and various garden elements harmoniously blend together. Through this, the company plans to participate in carbon neutrality efforts and climate crisis response, while sharing Hoban Group's corporate philosophy of pursuing harmony among nature, people, architecture, and life with citizens.

The completed garden will be unveiled at the "2026 Seoul International Garden Expo," which opens at Seoul Forest on May 1. Even after the event, the garden will continue to serve as a resting space to enhance citizens' quality of life and emotional well-being.

Beon Booseop, Head of Construction Safety Division at Hoban Construction, said, "We hope to realize corporate social responsibility by creating green spaces in the city, adding nature and relaxation to citizens' daily lives," adding, "We expect the Corporate Accompaniment Garden to become a symbolic space that contributes to the creation of a sustainable urban environment."

Kim Younghwan, Director of the Seoul Metropolitan Government's Garden City Bureau, said, "We will work to ensure that the Corporate Accompaniment Garden, which will be created in Seoul Forest together with Hoban Construction, will become a beloved garden that endures long after the expo."
