전북현대, ‘작은학교 축구 관람 지원’ 나선다

Jeonbuk Hyundai to Support Watching School Soccer Games

Jeonbuk Hyundai, in cooperation with Jeonbuk Special Self-Governing Province Office of Education and Hyundai Motor's Jeonju Plant, is starting a social contribution activity to support students at small schools in rural areas of the province with eco-friendly hydrogen buses for transportation and game viewing in a one-stop service.

This project targets students from small schools with less than 30 students in rural areas, allowing them to attend Jeonbuk Hyundai's home games (a total of 14 games) until October 18. It is expected that at least 500 students will be able to visit the stadium this year.

This initiative was planned to bridge the sports culture gap among local students who have had difficulty visiting the stadium due to geographical distance and lack of transportation, aiming to foster a sense of community.

Hyundai Motor's Jeonju Plant will provide 25-seater and 28-seater eco-friendly hydrogen buses produced directly by the plant for round-trip transportation from schools to Jeonju World Cup Stadium, while Jeonbuk Hyundai will provide lunch boxes, team souvenirs, and more to offer students a special game experience.

Furthermore, Jeonbuk Office of Education will support game tickets and sports safety insurance, and will also operate programs to maximize educational effects.

Jeonbuk Hyundai's Director Lee Do-hyun said, "As a local team, it is crucial to help students in the province easily access and enjoy soccer," adding, "Through this project, we hope students will directly support Jeonbuk Hyundai, experience the joy of sports, and feel pride in their region simultaneously."

Jeonbuk Hyundai, Jeonbuk Office of Education, and Hyundai Motor's Jeonju Plant plan to sign a three-party official memorandum of understanding (MOU) in the future, and as they are currently operating the project for the entire province, they plan to continue the project through ongoing collaboration.
