The Korea Sports Talent Development Institute, under the Korea Sports Council, has joined forces with Jeonnam Dragons of K League professional football to advance the development of sports talent.

On the 8th, the institute signed a "Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) for Strengthening Sports Talent Competencies and Mutual Development" with Jeonnam Dragons at the institute's conference room in Jangheung County, South Jeolla Province. Attending the ceremony were An Yong-hyuk, In Jae-gae-bal (Director) of the Sports [Council/Institute], Song Jong-chan, CEO of Jeonnam Dragons, and other key stakeholders.

Under this agreement, the two institutional investors will establish a close cooperative framework. Key areas of collaboration include operating educational programs for players and coaches affiliated with Jeonnam Dragons, expanding educational opportunities, sharing human and material infrastructure for the development and operation of educational programs, identifying new collaborative projects, and conducting mutual promotion to disseminate the outcomes of cooperation.

The relationship between the two parties began last summer. The Korea Sports Talent Development Institute had previously received a strong response from the team when it conducted "Mental Coaching Education" for Jeonnam Dragons' youth players in August. This agreement was pursued to build on that success, expanding the scope of education beyond youth players to professional athletes and coaches overall, and establishing a systematic support framework.

Yoo Seung-min, President of the Korea Sports Council, stated, "I expect the Korea Sports Talent Development Institute to coexist with local sports organizations, including professional sports clubs, and make significant contributions to cultivating regional sports talent."

The Korea Sports Council plans to use this agreement as a starting point to continuously expand customized educational programs for sports organizations and individual clubs on a nationwide scale, strengthening its role as the professional hub institutional investor of sports education in South Korea.
