Hyundai Motor Company announced on June 18 that it will actively participate in the restoration of the Asan ecosystem in collaboration with Asan City and the Korea Environmental Preservation Agency.
On the same day, an inauguration ceremony for the ecological park, part of the "Public-Private Partnership for Natural Environment Restoration and Biodiversity Enhancement Project," was held in Seonjang-myeon, Asan, Chungcheongnam-do.

The company has since been carrying out a variety of activities both domestically and internationally to promote sustainable management.
