Since 1996, Samyang has been holding the environmental-protection event Writing and Drawing Contest for the Love of Nature to become the protector of our beautiful environment and to bequeath it to our offspring. The elementary school children who participate in the event draw pictures. Middle school students write essays about love of nature. Each year, this event increases in size and social attention, becoming a corporation-led desirable environmental conservation model.

Each Samyang Group business unit has entered into a sisterhood agreement with a nearby farming village to enhance its understanding of values of farming areas and to help induce the balanced development for farmers under alliances with farmer’s cooperatives.
