BNK Gyeongnam Bank announced on the 13th that it is actively supporting Gyeongnam FC, a local professional soccer team.
On the 9th, BNK Gyeongnam Bank visited Changwon Football Center to operate a ‘free one-day tea house and face painting booth’ to wish for the successful hosting of the K League 2 Gyeongnam FC home opener and to cheer for Gyeongnam FC.
Employees volunteering handed out beverages such as water and juice to spectators who came to watch the game.
In addition, before the game started, Executive Director Heo Jong-gu of the Changwon Business Headquarters and employees held a banner that read “BNK Gyeongnam Bank wishes for Gyeongnam FC’s promotion to the first division” and took a commemorative photo with Park Wan-su, Governor of Gyeongsangnam-do.
Afterwards, they moved to the stands and passionately cheered together with about 8,000 local residents.
Heo Jong-gu, Executive Director of the Changwon Business Headquarters, said, “BNK Gyeongnam Bank will always support Gyeongnam FC from the side so that it can become a team loved even more by local residents. Going forward, BNK Gyeongnam Bank plans to continuously show interest in the development and revitalization of local sports.”
Meanwhile, BNK Gyeongnam Bank signs a sponsorship agreement with Gyeongnam FC every year and provides development funds used for Gyeongnam FC’s operating expenses.
Also, during weeks when Gyeongnam FC has home games, BNK Gyeongnam Bank employees apply for tickets through the company intranet to watch the games in large numbers, and the bank purchases admission tickets.
