The Lee Won Gil Scholarship was established in 2009 through donations from brothers Deok-seon Lee and Deok-hyung Lee to honor the legacy and humanistic spirit of the late Bernard Wonkil Lee, who lived a life of sincerity toward God and respect for humanity. This scholarship aims to support and recognize students who embody these humanistic values and demonstrate potential to grow as ethical leaders. We invite many students to apply.
