An Open Space for Employee Welfare and Community Cultural Engagement, Official Opening Scheduled for JuneQlight Co., Ltd. (CEO Heon-Gil Choi and Seung-Hyuk Choi) recently completed the construction of an annex building at its employee training center, “Rabbit & Ongdalsaem,” located in Samnangjin-eup, Miryang-si, Gyeongsangnam-do. The new facility was built to enhance employee welfare and provide cultural experiences. The official opening is scheduled for June 2025. “Rabbit & Ongdalsaem” is a space created against the backdrop of rich natural surroundings. Initially established as a training and relaxation center for Qlight employees, it has since been opened to local residents and has become well-loved as a “forest library.” In particular, the facility has been offered free of charge to artists, children’s organizations, and the general public, continuously evolving as an open cultural and welfare space where books and nature coexist in harmony.In response to the growing interest and increasing usage of the training center by both employees and the local community, Qlight decided to demolish its aging facilities—including the traditional clay room, exhibition hall of traditional household items, and the story pavilion—and proceed with the construction of a new annex building. The main building has been renovated to strengthen its research functions, while the newly built annex has been developed as a dedicated “recreation hall.” The newly constructed annex is a two-story building that harmoniously blends eco-friendly design with practical spatial planning. Inside, it features a banquet hall suitable for small workshops and gatherings, a book café for reading and lectures, a dedicated area for remote work, and modern accommodation facilities. Additional amenities include a tea room, a music listening room, and an exhibition space showcasing traditional household items, farming tools, and earthenware jars. Together with the existing facilities such as open-air pavilions, a grass garden, and pond, the annex offers visitors a variety of spaces for relaxation, reading, and hands-on experiences. Qlight continues to develop new programs and keep the space open to the public, with the aim of transforming “Rabbit & Ongdalsaem” from a simple training center into an open venue for culture and knowledge accessible to all. In practice, the facility hosts a variety of annual events, including internal gatherings such as tea meetings and autumn concerts, reading programs, and cultural events in collaboration with the local community. Through these efforts, Qlight has successfully balanced its dual goals of enhancing employee welfare and contributing to the local community.A key feature of the new annex is its design as a multifunctional complex where “rest,” “learning,” and interaction” can take place simultaneously. Qlight aims to enhance the quality of life for each of its employees while also strengthening partnerships with external organizations and community groups. The company hopes that the operation of the training center will continue to evolve in a more open and sustainable direction.A Qlight representative stated, “The construction of the new annex is not just about improving physical space, but is part of our ongoing efforts to fulfill our corporate social responsibility and contribute culturally to the community.” They added, “We expect the facility to serve not only as a place for employees to recharge, but also as a continuous platform for cultural exchange and communication with the local community.”By Yongseok Choi, Reporter (duck8@donga.com)Source: DongA Ilbo (https://www.donga.com/news/Economy/article/all/20250605/131752051/1)
