[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Kim Yong-woo] The ‘Small Happy Senior Branch No. 5, Namu Geuneul,’ where excellent products related to the senior-friendly industry can be experienced for free in Busan, has been decided to be located at Buk-gu Hwamyung Comprehensive Social Welfare Center.


‘Small Happy Senior’ is a project jointly established by Busan City, Busan Technopark, and the Busan Social Welfare Center Association to set up a promotional experience center for senior-friendly products.


The promotional experience center is installed within comprehensive social welfare centers with high accessibility for citizens so that all citizens can use and experience it. The new experience centers are selected by gathering opinions from Busan City, Busan Technopark, and the Busan Social Welfare Center Association after candidate sites are recommended by the Busan Social Welfare Center Association.


So far, the city has established Baekyang Namu Geuneul Branch No. 1 (Sasang-gu), Gaegum Namu Geuneul Branch No. 2 (Busanjin-gu), Parangsae Namu Geuneul Branch No. 3 (Haeundae-gu), and Jung-gu Namu Geuneul Branch No. 4 (Jung-gu).


Since Buk-gu has the highest number of vulnerable groups compared to the entire city, it is promoting the ‘365 Buk-gu CARE, Community Integrated Care for the Elderly’ project, and considering these conditions, Buk-gu Namu Geuneul Branch No. 5 (Buk-gu) was selected this time.


‘Buk-gu Namu Geuneul’ will host companies dealing with senior-friendly products and will be organized into a corporate experience promotion center, a senior-friendly policy center, and a citizen health living center, scheduled to open in November.


A representative from an existing participating company said, “Not only through the welfare center, but residents also frequently inquire about products by phone,” and added, “Although free product installation was a burden, it greatly helps with corporate promotion and market development,” expressing satisfaction.



Byun Sung-wan, Acting Mayor of Busan, said, “The field-centered senior-friendly product experience center will provide companies with opportunities for product promotion and market development, and will become a comfortable health resting place for citizens.”
