"Revealing the Hidden Achievements of the Independence Hero"… KB Kookmin Bank Releases Dosan Ahn Changho Video

‘Daehan-i Salatda’ Campaign Initiative
Planned by Korean Public Relations Expert Professor Seo Kyung-duk, Narration by Actress So Yoo-jin

[Asia Economy Reporter Park Sun-mi] KB Kookmin Bank announced on the 13th that it has released a video titled "A Name Shining Beyond Time and Borders, Dosan Ahn Chang-ho" in commemoration of the founding anniversary of Heungsadan, established by Dosan Ahn Chang-ho.

This video was produced as part of KB Kookmin Bank's independence movement commemorative project, the 'Daehan Lived' campaign. Professor Seo Kyung-deok of Sungshin Women's University, a Korean public relations expert appointed as the campaign ambassador in March, participated in the project. The narration was provided by actress So Yoo-jin.

The video features lesser-known achievements and the life story of Ahn Chang-ho, who led various independence movements both domestically and internationally. It was created to convey that his noble spirit continues to be inherited and developed today. The video can be viewed with Korean and English subtitles on KB Kookmin Bank's YouTube channel.

Professor Seo Kyung-deok, who planned the video, said, "We launched the campaign to honor the dedication of independence activists and to raise awareness about them." A KB Kookmin Bank official stated, "Although Dosan's name is widely known, we felt that few people know the details of his independence movement achievements compared to his reputation," adding, "We will continue to strive to reexamine and widely publicize the achievements of independence heroes whom we have not known well."

Meanwhile, KB Kookmin Bank continues its scholarship sponsorship program to support the livelihood stability of independence patriots and their descendants. To add significance to the production of this video, the bank plans to provide scholarships to descendants of independence patriots through Heungsadan, founded by Ahn Chang-ho.
