 Corporate involvement in environmental issues in the
21st century has long been the subject of debate.
Samyang understands the urgency for restoring dam-
aged environmental areas and protecting the environ-
ment that all people are entitled to enjoy. With this
conviction, the Group has organized annual essay
and
painting events with an environmental theme since
1996. The scale of and public interest in these events
has grown over time, and now they have become
models for others to emulate. Moreover, the employees
at every worksite across Korea periodically volunteer to clean up a local mountain and river. |

| Samyang is also educating the public on the value of farming communities and is cooperating with them to promote a balanced development between the companies and the farmers. Each worksite forms ¡°sisterhood¡± with one farming community in the vicinity and helps to protect the environment there. Employees lend a hand during the planting and harvesting seasons and various exchanges (community service, cultural programs) are conducted. |

 Samyang has opened the Dongdaemun branch of the
¡°Beautiful Store¡± in Seoul. This establishment sells
second-hand donated by the corporate community
and the public, to include clothes, shoes, handbags,
books, CDs, kitchenware, accessories, baby items
and
leisure goods. The proceeds to into a fund used
to
support various charity programs. In addition,
Samyang is conducting a Groupwide collection drive
for
goods and funds, while employees and their family
members volunteer to help out at the store. Such efforts
are helping to provide hope to the socially disadvantaged. |
