Shwan Jang, Head of KOTRA Invest Korea, said, “As it will be held offline this year, we expect it will serve as a good opportunity for job-seekers and foreign-invested companies to communicate. We will keep on making efforts to generate quality jobs to make the most use of foreign investment attractive.”
