The Korean Beekeeping Association, established in 1967, has been designated as a public interest corporation as of September 30, 2026. This recognition will enable the association to actively pursue projects aimed at conserving bee ecosystems and advancing the beekeeping industry. As a leading organization in South Korea's beekeeping sector, it has focused on protecting the rights of beekeepers, disseminating technology, and preserving bee habitats. With this new status, the association plans to promote the public value of beekeeping and implement various public interest initiatives more systematically.
