On the afternoon of that day, President Bae Sanghoon and CEO Choi Byunghan held a signing ceremony in the reception room on the third floor of the main administration building at Pukyong National University. They agreed to pursue joint projects for the future development of Busan as a maritime capital, cooperate in the fisheries and marine sectors, and work together for community contribution and mutual growth.

Through this agreement, the two institutions plan to jointly promote the dissemination of educational and research achievements in fisheries and marine fields to the local community, as well as information exchange and collaborative projects aimed at advancing the fisheries and marine industries and strengthening ties with the community.

In particular, with the Ministry of Oceans and Fisheries scheduled to relocate to Busan this year, the collaboration between a leading local university and a broadcasting company in the fisheries and marine sectors is expected to maximize the synergy effects of the ministry's relocation.

Going forward, the two institutions will expand the exchange and cooperation of human and material resources and work to establish a joint cooperation system for regional development.
