The Kyeryong Scholarship Foundation has provided 71 million won in scholarships to support students pursuing their dreams.
On September 8, the foundation announced that it awarded scholarships to a total of 53 high school and college students for the second semester of 2026 on September 7.
Eligibility for the Kyeryong scholarship includes high school students from underprivileged backgrounds who demonstrate academic excellence. Each student receives 1 million won per semester, awarded in two installments: a scholarship certificate and online transfer for the first semester, and an online transfer (to the school or student account) for the second semester.
For college students, the scholarship targets those from low-income families who excel academically but struggle to cover tuition costs. They receive 2 million won per quarter, also disbursed via online transfer (to the school or student account).
This recent scholarship distribution is the second installment of the total 142 million won allocated for general scholarships this year. Since its establishment in 1992, the foundation has distributed a total of 7.423 billion won in scholarships.
A representative from the Kyeryong Scholarship Foundation stated, "We hope this scholarship helps students move closer to their dreams and will continue to provide support and attention to nurture future talents who can fully realize their potential."
