Yulchon LLC and the University of Seoul's Graduate School of Taxation announced on August 21 that they have signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) to enhance the training and education of professionals in tax law.
The agreement aims to strengthen educational and research capabilities in the field of tax law and to expand practical connections.
Under the MOU, the two institutions will actively collaborate on several initiatives, including the joint development and operation of educational programs for tax law professionals, collaborative research to enhance tax law research capabilities, and the joint operation of practical programs such as regular lectures, seminars, and workshops. They will also support educational and research infrastructure.
Jeon Young-jun, co-head of Yulchon’s tax group, stated, "Tax law is a field of law that is closely linked to both theory and practice. Through this agreement, we will explore ways to integrate Yulchon’s practical experience into tax law education and research, as well as how to apply the theoretical research outcomes from the Graduate School of Taxation in practice."
