[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Choi Soon-kyung] Hapcheon-gun, Gyeongnam announced on the 8th that it operated a pregnant women experience promotion center on October 10th, Pregnant Women’s Day, to raise awareness of the importance of pregnancy and childbirth and to spread a culture of consideration for pregnant women in daily life.

This pregnant women experience used a specially made vest that allows non-pregnant people to feel the weight experienced by actual pregnant women, and distributed phone grip-toks with messages promoting consideration for pregnant women.

A man who visited the health center appeared embarrassed as the vest was heavier than he expected.

The director of Hapcheon-gun Health Center said, “Instead of only worrying about the continuously decreasing pregnancy and childbirth rates, establishing a culture where we all sincerely consider and practice care for pregnant women in daily life should come first, so that Hapcheon-gun can become a good place to have and raise children.”
