The Campaign

Let’s install a non-verbal communication channel on to the school bus! - A way to talk with a friend sitting in a seat far away - A way to send pictures and letters to friends - Selfies taken with the camera installed on the window can be sent to the parents’ phones

Execution

- Modification and operation of the school bus of Chungju Sungshim School for the hearing-impaired - A film developed of the hearing-impaired students’ experiences with the bus, and uploaded online - A picture book developed based on the stories of the film, that was crowdfunded voluntarily by the public, and also marketed by the public - Participation of various celebrities on podcasts and social media channels in promoting the campaign

- 35% of Korean population viewed the campaign film. - Public image of HMG rose to 91% positive. (Whereas before the campaign, it was mostly negative) - Many expressed their gratitude to HMG for developing a technology that addresses a societal problem. - 2M people participated in social funding for producing the ‘Chatty School bus picture book’. - People inspired by the campaign filed for a petition against the government demanding more institutions for the impaired, and as a result the government announced its plans to build 2 new special schools and to instate 66 special classes within regular schools, by 2022.

The Situation

Hyundai Motor Group(HMG), under the slogan “Together for a better future”, has been trying to effectively instill a positive group image within the public. “Chatty School Bus” campaign is one of those efforts, and a CSR campaign that focuses on the students with impairments, a marginalized class within Korean society. Many people related to, and cheered for, the said students and the vision of HMG behind the campaign.

The Strategy

- Providing a solution that is uniquely Hyundai, for the problem students with impairments face - To make the public aware of the problem, and to give them a chance to participate and to promote the cause - To actively utilize the influence celebrities exert on the public
