CU franchisees, staff donate to Dokdo advocacy group

BGF Retail announced Friday that the CU Dokdo Love Expedition — composed of its employees and CU franchisees — held the "2026 Dokdo Love Support Event."

The event is part of a sponsorship initiative BGF Retail has maintained since 2012. This year, CU franchisees and staff again joined as members of the expedition and delivered a donation to the Dokdo Love Movement Headquarters. The funds will support domestic and international campaigns to raise awareness of Dokdo's history and projects aimed at strengthening the islets' presence.

"We will continue activities that allow people to show their interest in Dokdo and their love of country in everyday life," said Son Ji-wook, head of BGF Retail's mutual-growth cooperation division.
