Hyosung announced on the 9th that it will sponsor the 2023 Veterans Culture Festival "Let's Celebrate AMAZING 70 Festa" organized by the Seoul Southern Veterans Affairs Office.

This year's Veterans Culture Festival "Let's Celebrate AMAZING 70 Festa" is a festival planned to spread veterans culture and increase social interest and respect for national merit recipients in commemoration of the Month of Patriots and Veterans in June and the 70th anniversary of the Korean War armistice.

The event will be held free of charge from 4 PM to 8 PM at the east lawn square of COEX in Gangnam. Participants can enjoy experience events such as the tattoo experience "Engraving Veterans in My Hand," digital caricatures, the quiz "Find the Flags of Participating Countries" with prize roulette, and a four-cut photo booth at the Veterans Photo Studio.

Hyosung Chairman Cho Hyun-joon said, "I will strive to never forget the spirit of sacrifice of those who dedicated themselves to protecting the country and to pass on that value to future generations."

The event will start with a military band performance by the Capital Defense Command Military Band, followed by the Bubble Gumps dance performance, acoustic singer-songwriter band O.T.B, a fusion martial arts performance by the Gilgaon Performance Group, traditional Korean instrument performances by the crossover ensemble Deu, and a solo stage by singer Park Ji-heon. Agent H, the promotional ambassador for the 70th anniversary of the Korean War armistice, will appear in the second part’s open-book veterans quiz session to share information related to patriotism and the 70th anniversary of the armistice.

Under the slogan "Together through Sharing," Hyosung is conducting social contribution activities for veterans to properly remember and honor those who have dedicated themselves to protecting the nation. This year as well, the company supported various programs including employee participation in the purification of the National Cemetery, the "Nara Sarang Bogumjari" project to improve the living environment of national merit recipients, and the "70 Years Picnic" with veterans and their families.
