  "account": "On November 9th, about 100 youths from 30 different countries participated in a financial education program organized by Hana Bank. The event was part of the \"2026 Overseas Youth Korean Language Education Training,\" a joint effort between the Ministry of Education and the International Korean Language Education Foundation. Since 2019, Hana Bank has sponsored this initiative for eight consecutive years, aiding exchanges for overseas middle and high school students enrolled in Korean language courses.\n\nDuring the program, the students visited Hana Bank's headquarters in Cheongna, Incheon. They spent time in Hana Global Campus, the bank's training institute, where they focused on understanding the intricacies of Korean finance. Accommodations were provided to ensure the students' safety while they engaged in the program. The students also had hands-on activities to help them naturally grasp the structure of global markets.\n\nThe highlight of the trip was a visit to Hana Infinity Seoul, the largest dealing room in the country. Here, the youths observed real-time foreign exchange, securities, and derivatives trading, occurring around the clock. They listened to explanations from foreign exchange dealers regarding the flow of funds, gaining valuable insights into the workings of the global financial system.\n\nFollowing the dealing room visit, the students toured the Anti-Counterfeit Response Center and the Currency Museum at Myeong-dong. They learned about counterfeit bill identification through case studies and had the opportunity to compare their home currencies with those of other countries, thanks to the museum's display of 45 different currencies. Hana Bank expressed its intention to continue supporting overseas youths in their understanding of Korean finance. The bank also anticipates that the trained participants will return to their respective countries, becoming key figures who will promote the strengths of Korean finance.",
