Opened on the second floor of Shinhan Bank's Daerim-dong branch on October 12, the lounge is the bank's first lounge dedicated to foreign customers. It is connected to the banking area so foreign customers can relax and communicate comfortably while using financial services.


Shinhan Bank plans to use the lounge's multipurpose space to provide financial education and other programs to help foreign customers settle in Korea. Along with financial consultations, it will also provide financial information needed for life in Korea.


In addition, considering the financial needs of Daerim-dong, where many foreign residents, including ethnic Koreans from China, live, the lounge will also operate on Sundays from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m.



Shinhan Bank President Jeong Sanghyeok said, "We created this lounge to provide a space where foreign customers can receive financial consultations comfortably and communicate with one another. Starting with Daerim-dong, we will expand dedicated lounges to major areas where foreign residents live, supporting their lives in Korea and providing the financial services they need."
