Daeryun Law Firm and Ewha Womans University Law School Join Hands to Cultivate Global Lawyers

Daeryun Law Firm announced on the 3rd that it signed an MOU with Ewha Womans University Law School (Law School) to foster global legal professionals.

The signing ceremony held on the 2nd at the Ewha Womans University Law School was attended by Daeryun CEO Kim Guk-il, Managing Director Attorney Lee Ye-seom, Ewha Womans University Law School Dean Kim Hyeon-cheol, Vice Dean for Academic Affairs Kim Byeong-seon, Vice Dean for Student Affairs Jeong In-gyeong, and Planning and Evaluation Director Lim Jae-hyeok.

Ewha Womans University Law School, which opened in 2009 after the Law School of the College of Law in 1950 and the Law School in 1996, is a long-standing educational institution that has produced many of the best female lawyers in Korea. Ewha Womans University Law School has led the legal profession by producing the first female lawyer, Constitutional Court Justice, and Minister of Legislation in Korea. In addition, it ranked first among 25 law schools nationwide in the appointment of new judicial researchers and prosecutors last year.

Daeryun ranked 9th in terms of sales in the law firm industry last year, and rose to the top 10 law firms in the domestic legal market in the shortest time possible. This is thanks to the establishment of specialized groups in each field, such as corporate, tax, and medical, and the continuous recruitment of experts who fit the characteristics of each field. In particular, it is accelerating its advance into Tokyo, Japan and New York, USA, and is also advancing into the global market. In addition, as part of its social responsibility, Daeryun established the public interest corporation 'Inyeon Law' in February and began full-scale activities.

This agreement was promoted to foster global youth and prospective legal professionals and enhance international competitiveness. Through this agreement, the two companies will cooperate in ▲ domestic and international legal market analysis and research ▲ international legal theory and practice lectures ▲ education and seminars for fostering global legal professionals.

In particular, Daeryun plans to provide special benefits by selecting interns every year and providing them with opportunities for practical training. Through this, Ewha Womans University Law School students are expected to be able to gain experience in the actual legal field.

Ewha Womans University Law School Dean Kim Hyun-chul said, “We signed this agreement to provide more students with great opportunities. We plan to hold a ‘talent fair’ in the future, and I hope that this will be a place where both companies can introduce their global visions and directions.” He added, “In order to foster global lawyers, we need diverse practical experience, and I think that Daeryun Law Firm, which is actively expanding overseas, will be able to provide great help. I hope that students will be able to learn and gain diverse experiences through future exchanges.”

In addition, President Kim added, “I would like to participate as a member of ‘Inyeonbeop,’ a non-profit organization established by Daeryun, and realize the values of education and public interest together.”

Daeryun Kim Kuk-il, the CEO of Daeryun, said, “We are delighted to be able to cooperate with Ewha Womans University, which is renowned for producing lawyers,” and added, “We plan to select excellent students every year and help them broaden their horizons in the overseas legal market.” He added, “We are currently in the process of expanding overseas to countries such as Japan and the United States, as well as recruiting personnel such as lawyers specializing in overseas law. We will spare no effort in providing support in areas where we can provide the greatest possible assistance.”
