[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Heung-soon] LG HelloVision has contributed to the fight against the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) by delivering 10,000 medical masks to Seoul Rehabilitation Hospital.

According to LG HelloVision on the 15th, a mask delivery ceremony was held the previous day at Seoul Rehabilitation Hospital in Eunpyeong-gu, Seoul, attended by LG HelloVision Executive Director Yoon Yong, Seoul Rehabilitation Hospital Director Lee Ji-sun, and other officials.

Seoul Rehabilitation Hospital is a specialized hospital where 80% of the patients are people with disabilities. If the hospital is closed due to a confirmed COVID-19 case, it would severely impact rehabilitation treatment for local disabled children and adolescents. The hospital experienced operational difficulties after closing for two weeks following a confirmed case in February.

Along with mask support, LG HelloVision plans to conduct fundraising through subtitle advertisements on local channel broadcasts. Director Lee Ji-sun said, "Due to the nature of rehabilitation treatment, patients and medical staff must have close contact, and people with disabilities are more vulnerable to infection than the general public. We are grateful for the much-needed gift."

Executive Director Yoon said, "We are honored to highlight the situation of the rehabilitation hospital through the local channel and to extend actual support. We hope the masks we prepared will provide a small help in preventing COVID-19 at the local rehabilitation hospital."
