By Maekyung News Service

Major South Korean business leaders are expected to attend a ceremony at Ewha Womans University conferring an honorary doctorate in business administration on Delphine Arnault, chief executive officer (CEO) of Christian Dior Couture.

According to business sources on Tuesday, Arnault will receive the honorary doctorate on Thursday at Kim Young-Ui Hall in the university’s music building in Seodaemun District, northwestern Seoul.

Ewha Womans University said it decided to confer the degree on Arnault to mark its 140th anniversary, in recognition of her business acumen and leadership in the global fashion industry, as well as her contributions to nurturing the next generation of talent.

The university added that her achievements align with its educational vision of promoting the advancement of women.

In her acceptance speech, Arnault is expected to highlight Korea’s longstanding importance to Dior and its continued significance to the brand. She is also expected to express her pride in supporting the talent and creativity of young women.

According to business sources, Hyundai Group Chairwoman Hyun Jeong-eun is expected to attend the ceremony.

Lotte Group Chairman Shin Dong-bin, his eldest son Shin Yoo-yeol, co-CEO of Lotte Biologics Co. and head of the Future Growth Division at Lotte Corp., and Hotel Shilla President Lee Boo-jin are also reportedly considering attending. Some of them are expected to join a luncheon following the ceremony.

Shin Dong-bin and Shin Yoo-yeol previously accompanied Bernard Arnault, Delphine Arnault’s father and chairman of luxury conglomerate LVMH Mo?t Hennessy Louis Vuitton SE (LVMH), on a tour of Lotte Department Store’s Jamsil branch during his visit to Korea in May.

“We hope this honorary degree will help further expand cooperation between Ewha and Dior and provide fresh momentum for nurturing future talent who will thrive on the global stage,” said Ewha Womans University President Lee Hyang-sook.
