Woongjin ThinkBig announced that CEO Yoon Seung-hyun participated in the "Youth Anti-Illegal Gambling Relay Campaign" organized by the Seoul Metropolitan Police Agency on June 16.
The campaign aims to raise awareness about the dangers of illegal online gambling among youth, which is rapidly spreading through digital platforms, and to foster a preventive atmosphere against gambling crimes. It has been operating in a relay format with public participation since 2024.
Yoon joined the campaign after being nominated by Ko Kwang-bum, CEO of Bolt Tech Korea. The company explained that Yoon decided to participate because he resonates with the need to eradicate illegal cyber gambling before it harms the youth, who are accustomed to the digital environment.
Illegal cyber gambling targeting young people poses a threat to the healthy development of future generations, and it is recognized as an issue that educational companies must address collectively, beyond being a mere social problem.
Yoon emphasized, "As a company that supports children's education and proper growth, Woongjin ThinkBig will also raise its voice against threats occurring outside of the learning environment." He added, "I hope our entire society can become a protective barrier for the healthy growth of children."
Expressing his commitment to eradicating youth illegal gambling, Yoon nominated Kang Jung-hoon, CEO of iM Bank, as the next participant to help spread the campaign further.
