[Financial News] Kyobo Book Centre is holding an online general knowledge mock exam that tests knowledge in six fields, including philosophy, history and science, with 18 questions, and lets participants explore books related to the questions. It will also host art lectures and jazz performances.
According to Kyobo Book Centre on the 13th, the “2026 Second-Half General Knowledge Mock Exam,” which began on the 12th, is a follow-up to an event held last spring. The questions cover philosophy, history, science, economics, the arts and current affairs.
