[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Yoon Jamin] Korea Land and Housing Corporation (LH) Gwangju Jeonnam Regional Headquarters donated 300 fire extinguishers to traditional markets in the Jeonnam region.

The Jeonnam Fire Headquarters (Chief Ma Jaeyoon) announced on the 29th that it held a 'fire extinguisher donation ceremony' with LH Gwangju Jeonnam Regional Headquarters (Head Oh Youngoh) at the Yeosu Fire Station on the same day.

At the donation ceremony attended by about 30 people including the Yeosu Fire Station Chief, LH Gwangju Jeonnam Regional Headquarters delivered 300 units of 3.3kg fire extinguishers to the Jeonnam Fire Headquarters, requesting them to be distributed to traditional markets vulnerable to winter fires.

Currently, a total of 2,721 visible fire extinguishers are installed in 114 traditional markets within the jurisdiction.
