The Korea Land and Housing Corporation's Daegu-North Gyeongsang Province regional headquarters and Daegu Urban Development Corp. teamed up with the iM Social Welfare Foundation to hold a series of outreach financial education sessions aimed at helping local youth develop sound economic habits.

The two-part program began Friday, when Daegu Urban Development Corp. conducted the first session at the Daegu Sangin Community Welfare Center, followed Saturday by a second session led by the LH Daegu-North Gyeongsang Province branch at a youth space in Daegu Yulha Complex 15.

Certified instructors from the iM Social Welfare Foundation delivered the curriculum, covering practical topics tailored to young audiences — including allowance management, the importance of saving and building rational spending habits.

The program is part of an "ESG Value-Sharing Hope Growth Mentoring" initiative jointly run by the LH Daegu-North Gyeongsang Province branch, Daegu Urban Development Corp. and Kyungpook National University.

The financial education component was added to an existing university student tutoring program that has been running since September, extending youth support into the area of everyday personal finance.

"It is meaningful that cooperation between local public institutions and a financial organization has given young people a genuine learning opportunity," said Lee Jae-yong, president of Daegu Urban Development Corp.

Oh Seong-jun, acting head of the LH Daegu-North Gyeongsang Province branch, said the organization would continue its community outreach work in partnership with local institutions "so that young people can enjoy diverse learning opportunities in a stable residential environment and nurture their dreams."
