[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Kim Yong-woo] As Chuseok approaches, the Dongmyeong University Labor Union is temporarily keeping its hands busy.

They could not forget the essential people who nurture and protect the school, the ‘family’ of Dongmyeong who share the sweat together.

This indispensable family consists of 52 members, including campus janitors, security guards, and contract workers.

The Dongmyeong University Branch of the National University Labor Union (Branch Chief Lee Jae-dong) gifted cleaning, security, and contract workers 52 sets of kim gift sets worth about 1 million won at the union office on the 24th, ahead of Chuseok.

Since 2010, it has been a Chuseok custom that the Dongmyeong University Labor Union has faithfully maintained every holiday.

The union also strives to communicate with these university members and improve workers’ rights through grievance counseling.

Branch Chief Lee Jae-dong said, “It is a small gift, but I hope it brings some comfort during these difficult times due to COVID-19.”
