Dongi Bani

Let’s create an ecosystem for coexistence with Dongi and Bani!

Bees and flowers represent a typical symbiotic relationship, where both sides benefit each
other with honey and fruit. This symbolizes win-win growth and win-win cooperation that
is essential in modern society. Dongi pollinates Bani, enabling it to bear ‘win-win fruit’, and
in return, Bani provides ‘together honey (honey)’ to Dongi. The two are essential to each
other and partners for win-win cooperation, solving problems together

We work together to sustain the values of fairness, mutual benefit, and innovation
by resolving social conflicts and strengthening corporate competitiveness
by spreading a culture of win-win growth and mutually beneficial cooperation.
