KTA has been working to develop junior tennis in Korea through partnerships with companies like Samsung. The number of elite junior players and teams in Korea has grown steadily from 2013 to 2016. KTA's partnership with Samsung began in 1992 and has helped turn many Korean players into world-class professionals by funding their training, salaries, and tournament expenses. Hong Seong-chan was the first player supported through the new KTA-Samsung partnership and has had success on the ATP Challenger tour. KTA aims to continue developing junior players under new leadership and their ongoing partnership with Samsung.
