LG Hausys Renovates Homes of Descendants of Independence Activists

[Asia Economy Reporter Hwang Yoon-joo] LG Hausys is continuing its patriotic social contribution activities by supporting home renovations for descendants of independence activists in the Jeonbuk region, utilizing its business capabilities.

The descendants selected this time include a total of four individuals: Guk Jung-kwang, grandson of the late Guk Dong-wan who led independence movements in the Jeonbuk area; Kim Dae-gyun, grandson of the late Kim Un-seo; Yeo Eun-seok, grandson of the late Yeo Gyu-mok; and Park Young-ja, child of the late Park Soon-young.

Guk Dong-wan led guerrilla activities with about 40 comrades in early 1909 across Buan, Gobu, and Heungdeok in Jeonbuk, spearheading the independence movement. Kim Un-seo served as the adventure captain of the Hanminhoe independence movement organization. Yeo Gyu-mok was a middle commander of the Lee Seok-yong militia unit, and Park Soon-young reorganized the Namwon Youth Alliance Unbong branch and focused on nurturing independence activists, earning recognition as an independence meritorious person.

LG Hausys, together with the Liberation Association, comprehensively considered factors such as housing aging and urgency of renovation among descendants of independence activists to select beneficiaries. They provided interior materials including windows, flooring, and wallpaper, and carried out renovation work over two weeks starting late last month, recently completing all projects.

Meanwhile, LG Hausys supported home renovations for three Korean War veterans this year on the 70th anniversary of the Korean War, and since 2015 has supported housing environment improvement projects for a total of 33 national merit recipients, including descendants of independence activists and Korean War veterans.
