Amorepacific Welfare Foundation Opens Jeju Island Space Culture Improvement Project
[Asia Economy Reporter Yujin Cho] Amorepacific Welfare Foundation (Chairman Donghyun Bae) remodeled the Jeju Seogwipo City Girls' Long-term Youth Shelter as part of the 'Space Culture Improvement Project' and held an opening ceremony on the 22nd.
The Space Culture Improvement Project involves renovating facilities of nonprofit women's organizations that lack social interest and support, transforming them into safe and comfortable spaces. It began in 2005 and marked its 16th anniversary this year, planning to transform a total of 218 spaces by the end of the year.
The Seogwipo City Girls' Long-term Youth Shelter, which hosted the event, is the 216th selected institution and is a specialized facility providing tailored services for girls in need of protection.
Through this remodeling, the shelter was reborn as a complex space where various activities for admitted youth are possible. Movies can be watched in the living room, and new individual storage spaces were also created. Amorepacific's interior team participated in the project by donating their talents for space consulting and blueprint work, while local women who had experienced career breaks took part in organizing and storing internal facilities, adding significance to the project.
The opening ceremony was attended by Kang Eun-sook, director of the Seogwipo City Girls' Long-term Youth Shelter, along with staff members and local figures, sharing the fruits of the Space Culture Improvement Project.

An official from Amorepacific Welfare Foundation stated, “Due to the novel coronavirus infection (COVID-19), the influence of the spaces where we stay is gradually increasing,” and emphasized the direction and importance of the Space Culture Improvement Project by saying, “In the case of living welfare facilities, they must evolve into complex spaces that perform various functions and roles beyond physical space.”
