Dedication ceremony for the Wall of Honor was held on the first floor lobby of the Main Building of Seoul Campus on April 20, to pay respect to the donators of HUFS.

An estimated number of 100 honored guests took part in the event to grace the special occasion. HUFS President Kim In-chul, Chairman of the HUFS Alumni Association Gwon Soon-han, and the Chairman of FILA Global Yoon Yoon-soo, participated along with a number of contributors.

Two HUFS alumni, KBS announcer Han Sang-heon and MBC announcer Cha Ye-rin, presided at the ceremony, carrying out all the formalities including the unveiling.

The donors and the participants enjoyed the meaningful affair, taking a look around the wall, and seeking their own inscribed names. A touch screen was sensibly installed, to enable people to search for the registered members easily.

According to the Strategy and Public Relations Team of HUFS, the Wall of Honor was built with high quality materials such as birch, brass, and red copper, with the purpose of offering the visitors a decent and pleasant experience. The overall size of the wall is 11.6 meters in width, and 4.5 meters in height. A total number of 921 copperplates are attached, with the names of those who donated over 5 million won, accumulatively.

With such a large amount of effort invested, university officials are anticipating the structure to function both as a reminder of the contributors’ charitable deeds, and a symbolic icon of HUFS.
