Hanwha Hotel and Resorts signed a "1 Company, 1 Barracks" partnership agreement with the Army's 9th Infantry Division, known as the Baengma Unit, to support soldier welfare and expand civilian-military exchange, the company announced Friday.

The agreement is part of Hanwha Hotel and Resorts' corporate social responsibility efforts in the national defense and veterans sector, which the company has carried out since 2010. Under the deal, soldiers and their families will receive a range of benefits when using Hanwha Resort facilities and affiliated venues nationwide.

At Aqua Planet, up to three accompanying guests receive a maximum 35 percent discount. At the 63 Building's premium buffet and upper-floor fine dining restaurant, soldiers dining as a pair receive a 30 percent discount on their own meal. The Plaza Dining and Anto food and beverage outlets offer a 10 percent discount. Newly commissioned term-enlisted noncommissioned officers in the current year will also receive two complimentary Waterpia admission tickets each.

For Hanwha Hotel and Resorts employees, the Baengma Unit will offer on-site experience programs — including base tours and security education sessions that are otherwise difficult to access — to deepen understanding of the military and strengthen national security awareness.

"We will continue to build on our exchange with the Baengma Unit and expand our soldier welfare support and community cooperation projects," a Hanwha Hotel and Resorts official said.
