KB Dream Home is a social contribution initiative that remodels independent living facilities and provides employment consulting as well as support for obtaining certifications, helping young adults build a foundation for self-reliance. The program is operated as part of KB Financial Group's "KB Kookmin Happiness Hope Project."

Starting last year in Chungnam, KB Kookmin Bank improved the living environments of independent living facilities in five regions outside the capital, including Gwangju, Mokpo, Daejeon, and Jeonju, thereby enhancing residential stability for young adults preparing for independence.

This year, the bank will continue to support independent living facilities nationwide. Ultimately, four independent living facilities—including one in Seoul, and others in Wonju, Gangwon Province, and Cheongju, North Chungcheong Province—have been selected for environmental improvement.

Based on on-site inspections, customized remodeling will be carried out.

In particular, this year's program will focus not only on facility upgrades but also on the creation of shared community spaces, such as study rooms to enhance youth capabilities and lounges for communication and relaxation.

A representative from KB Kookmin Bank stated, "We hope KB Dream Home will serve as a solid foundation to support a stable start for young adults beginning their journey toward independence," adding, "We will continue to expand our inclusive financial support so that both young people and all citizens can enjoy greater happiness."

Meanwhile, KB Financial Group recently introduced the KB Starters program to young entrepreneurs during the process of selecting 45 domestic and international startups to participate in the 2026 program. The group also held "on-site KB Starters briefings" aimed at discovering youth-led startups with strong growth potential.
