[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Park Yong-chul] The Beolgyo Branch of the Hometown Thinking Housewives Association in Boseong-gun, Jeollanam-do (President Song Gong-sim) announced on the 16th that about 25 members participated in sharing side dishes with 50 vulnerable households, including low-income families and elderly living alone in the area.


The members carefully prepared samgyetang, a representative summer health food, young radish kimchi, and cold seaweed soup, and delivered them to the vulnerable groups while checking on their well-being.


This volunteer activity is touching as neighbors shared the difficulties of vulnerable groups who find daily life challenging without help from others, due to limited welfare activities amid the prolonged COVID-19 pandemic.


President Song Gong-sim said, “I am grateful to the members who actively participated in the side dish sharing volunteer work for marginalized and struggling neighbors despite their busy daily lives. I hope this brings some comfort to the vulnerable groups who may feel even more lonely due to social isolation caused by the prolonged COVID-19 pandemic. The Hometown Thinking Housewives Association will continue to do its best to make Beolgyo-eup a better place to live.”



Beolgyo-eup Mayor Baek Seung-hoon stated, “I deeply appreciate the sharing volunteer work for neighbors even in difficult times, and we will strive harder to wisely overcome this challenging period that everyone is facing due to COVID-19.”
