The College of Business (President Lee Jong-eun) held the 2025 Business School Sports Competition "Beside Out" on May 22 (Thursday) at the grand stadium and basketball court of the Humanities and Social Sciences Campus. The athletic competition, which involved about 550 students from the Department of Business Administration and Global Business Administration, was divided into six teams and was conducted by students wearing customized group T-shirts inspired by the emotional character of the Disney animation "Inside Out."

In addition to existing team events such as soccer, dodgeball, tug-of-war, and obstacle running, new types of team events such as balloon tower building and bead memory transfer have been added to this athletic competition, focusing on diversity in the composition of the games and expanding opportunities to participate so that more students can participate in the games themselves.

At this athletic competition, on-site promotional booths and sponsorships from outside companies, including the "POST" brand, were placed together on the site, and the festival atmosphere was created by providing drinks, snacks, and sports kits to participating students. In addition, photo walls and support tools for each team were prepared, and contents were also operated to help participants leave memories of the athletic competition in pictures and strengthen solidarity among teams.

Lee Ji-won (Management 25), a student at the Cultural Planning Bureau who prepared for the event, said, "As I prepared and proceeded with the sports competition, I was always burdened by the expectations and participation of many classmates, but it was so proud and nice to see everyone enjoying the event and making new memories enough to overcome all the burden." Baek Baek Ji-hyun (Management 25), a student at the Culture Planning Bureau, also said, "This year's business school sports competition was able to finish with a higher degree of completion thanks to the enthusiasm and support of the classmates. The preparation process was not easy, but I felt the hard work I had done to see everyone enjoying it."

Through this sports competition, the business school provided an opportunity to promote exchanges between freshmen and current students and to strengthen a sense of belonging and community between departments. In the future, we plan to continue to plan various cultural and exchange events to create a student-centered culture.
