The Korean Sport and Olympic Committee (KSOC) has announced two new sponsorship agreements.

Hanjin Travel Agency and BBQ Chicken have both signed deals with the organisation which stretch through to 2024. 

Both partnerships were signed at the Olympic Culture Centre in Seoul.

The Hanjin deal continues a partnership which was in place when South Korea hosted the 2018 Winter Olympics in Pyeongchang.

Korean Air, Hanjin's flagship company, sponsored the Games and was an official carrier for athletes.

Hanjin and the KSOC are now planning a series of marketing and promotional activities, and are looking forward to a "successful partnership".

The deal with BBQ Chicken sees KSOC gain a sponsor in this sector for the first time.

It covers the Olympic Games, Asian Games and other multi-sport events.
