Park Sam-koo, chairman of the Kumho Asiana Group, has won honorary citizenship of Yantai, Shandong Province, China.

The Kumho Asiana Group, the parent conglomerate of Asiana Airlines, said Sunday that the Chinese city delivered the honorary citizenship to Park via the carrier`s office in the city for his contributions to the development of the city`s economy and promotion of South Korea-China friendship since the 1998 launch of Asiana flight services between Yantai and Incheon.

It marked the fifth honorary citizenship that Park has received from Chinese cities – from Guilin in 2001, Dalian in 2006 and Weihai and Nanjing in 2012.
