Hanjeon Industrial Development (Hanjeon Industrial) hosted a "Happy Photo Studio" event on August 14th, coinciding with the 81st anniversary of Korea's Liberation Day. The initiative provided professional portrait sessions for approximately 40 descendants of independence patriots, offering them commemorative photos as a tribute to their ancestors' sacrifices.

The "Happy Photo Studio" is a flagship social contribution program for Hanjeon Industrial, designed to wish the elderly good health and happiness through photography. This specific event was organized to honor the sacrifices and merits of those who dedicated themselves to Korea's independence and to express gratitude and respect to their descendants. It also aimed to reflect on the meaning of liberation and practice the value of national honor in daily life.

Today's Korea is built upon the sacrifices and dedication of the patriotic martyrs who devoted themselves to the nation. On Liberation Day, we prepared this event to express our gratitude to the independence patriots and their descendants and to remember their noble spirit.

Hanjeon Industrial has been actively involved in social contribution efforts honoring those who served the nation. In June, during the Month of National Defense and Veterans, the company provided jajangmyeon (black bean noodles) and donated books to soldiers. This month's event for descendants of independence patriots further demonstrates their commitment to promoting national honor. Additionally, the company operates a similar photo service for the elderly in the Samcheonpo and Hadong regions, strengthening its social contribution activities in partnership with local communities.

We will continue to practice respect for those who have served the country and engage in various social contribution activities to spread the culture of national honor and realize social value.
