'Dongbyeongsangryeon' at a Small Restaurant in Andong-si, Gyeongbuk... Generously Donates 10 Million Won for COVID-19 Relief Fund

[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Dongwook Park] Amid the prolonged COVID-19 pandemic causing significant damage to small business owners, a couple running a small restaurant in Andong city, Gyeongbuk, has warmed the local community by not only donating lunchboxes but also readily contributing 10 million won.

According to Andong city on the 18th, Beolgyo Kkomak Jeongsik (representatives Jang Jaeyong and Jeong Eunhye, a couple), located in Ok-dong, delivered 10 million won to Andong city on the 17th in the presence of Shin Hyunsoo, chairman of the Community Chest of Korea, and Lee Yunhwan, chairman of the Indeok Medical Foundation, as part of the "Cheer Up Andong! Small Business Support Relay Campaign."

The donated funds will be used, according to the couple's wishes, through the Gyeongbuk Community Chest of Korea to boost the morale of self-employed and small business owners affected by the economic downturn and to support those impacted.

Earlier, in March, the Jang couple had continued their donation activities by delivering about 400 lunchboxes to the Ha Green Park Youth Training Center, a residential treatment facility, the Gyeongbuk Provincial Office, and the Andong City Health Center, setting an example for those around them.

Andong Mayor Kwon Young-se said, "I sincerely thank representatives Jang Jaeyong and Jeong Eunhye for participating in donations despite the difficult economic situation caused by COVID-19," adding, "I hope this participation in donation will be a meaningful opportunity to give great hope to the struggling local community."
