[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Kim Yong-su] On the 9th, Gangjin-gun, Jeollanam-do announced that on the 7th, Yoon Guk-hyun, the head of Deokcheon Village in Gundo-myeon, took the lead in creating a happy Gangjin by donating 50 bags of 10kg rice (worth about 1.5 million KRW) to support neighbors in need within the district.

Yoon Guk-hyun (68 years old), the village head, stated, "Even if it is a small thing, I want to share with neighbors in need," and expressed his wish to "help ensure that the underprivileged in the area can have a warm winter."

Lee Seung-ok, the county governor who attended the donation ceremony, said, "Despite poor crop yields this year due to various factors such as typhoons, I thank village head Yoon Guk-hyun for entrusting rice for neighbors in need," and added, "Although the social atmosphere is shrinking due to the resurgence of COVID-19, I believe such warm hearts will be a great strength to overcome the crisis."

Meanwhile, the donated rice is scheduled to be delivered to neighbors in need (elderly, children, single-parent families, etc.) and social welfare facilities within the district.
