Health Insurance Corporation Volunteers in Flood Recovery, "Hope Our Sweat Brings Comfort"

Health Insurance Corporation Busan Gyeongnam Headquarters Sends 'Geonigangi Volunteer Group' for Hapcheon County Flood Recovery

The Geonigangi Volunteer Group of the National Health Insurance Service visited Yulgok-myeon, Hapcheon-gun, Gyeongnam on the 14th to carry out flood recovery work.

[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Kim Yong-woo] The National Health Insurance Service’s ‘Geonigangi Social Volunteer Group’ put down their work and gathered on the 14th in Yulgok-myeon, Hapcheon-gun, Gyeongnam.

A task more urgent than health insurance work. They willingly rushed to those who had to wait for someone’s help to regain their ‘health.’

The mission of the ‘Geonigangi’ team that day was flood recovery. This volunteer group is an in-house employee volunteer team deployed by the National Health Insurance Service Busan-Gyeongnam Regional Headquarters (Director Jang Su-mok) and the Geochang branch to sites damaged by flooding during recent heavy rains.

The Geonigangi team dismantled the flood-damaged vinyl greenhouses, organized household items, and cleaned up.

The site was trapped in a heatwave, making every movement breathless. The sweat poured out by the members as they removed the soil and debris scattered disorderly on houses and roads swelled like water buckets.

Jang Su-mok, director of the Busan-Gyeongnam Regional Headquarters, said, “I am grateful to the employees who actively stepped forward to help the local community amid the continuous heatwave following the heavy rain.”

The heatwave was even more indifferent to the flood-affected village that day. ‘Geonigangi’ hoped that the tremendous amount of sweat they shed would become a great strength and comfort to local merchants and residents who were deeply saddened by the flood damage.
