This ceremony was organized to commemorate the 106th anniversary of the founding of the Korean Sports Council, honor the achievements of meritorious individuals and exemplary employees who have contributed to the development of sports in Korea, and convey gratitude.

During the event, merit plaques were presented to 15 meritorious individuals in sports, while commendation certificates were awarded to 19 others, including 12 exemplary employees and labor-management culture contributors from the Korean Sports Council, as well as 7 meritorious employees from member organizations and partner companies. The meritorious individuals in sports were selected across various sectors of the sports field: 8 for promoting professional sports, 4 for promoting community sports, 2 for promoting school sports, and 1 for promoting overseas Korean sports.

In particular, to strengthen mutual growth and cooperation with related institutional investors, a new category for meritorious employees from member provincial and municipal sports councils was established, and the number of partner company meritorious employees eligible for awards was doubled to encourage those who have quietly worked hard in the sports field. The award for labor-management culture contributors was jointly presented by Yoo Seung-min (Chairman) and Ji-won Seung, adding deeper meaning to the concept of mutual growth between labor and management.
