Shin Yubin, who won a gold medal in the women's doubles table tennis event at the 19th Hangzhou Asian Games, received a reward from Shinhan Financial Group on Monday.
Shinhan Financial Group invited the athlete to receive the reward at the Shinhan Financial headquarters in Jung-gu, Seoul.
At the event, Shinhan Financial Group Chairman Jin Ok-dong encouraged the athlete and handed her a reward and a bouquet of flowers, and she thanked him for his support by hanging the gold medal she won.
Shinhan Financial has been supporting Shin Yubin through the Shinhan Rookie Sponsorship. Since 2011, Shinhan Financial has been identifying and supporting promising athletes in non-popular sports who have the potential to become international athletes, but have poor training conditions.
Through the Shinhan Rookie Sponsorship, Shin Yubin has received support for training and other expenses to compete in international competitions since 2018, when she was 14 years old.
"On behalf of all employees of Shinhan Financial Group, I would like to congratulate Yubin Shin on winning the gold medal at the Asian Games," said Mr. Jin. "Shinhan Financial will continue to support her in achieving her dreams on the world stage."
"We are extremely grateful to the Shinhan family for their unwavering support over the past five years," said Yubin Shin. 19가이드03
