Pukyong National University.

[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Kim Yong-woo] Pukyong National University (President Jang Young-su) has supported the Yongdang Campus Gwanggaeto Hall, which is currently out of use, as a Busan City Living Treatment Center.

On the 21st, Pukyong National University announced that it opened the "Busan City No. 3 Living Treatment Center" at the Gwanggaeto Hall of the Student Dormitory and will operate it until mid-February.

A living treatment center is a facility to support the treatment of asymptomatic and mild patients in preparation for a shortage of hospital beds.

Busan City recently requested cooperation from Pukyong National University to prepare for exceeding the capacity of existing living treatment centers due to the rapid increase in local COVID-19 confirmed cases.

Prior to the opening of this living treatment center, Busan City opened the No. 1 Living Treatment Center at the Busan Human Resources Development Institute on the 4th and the No. 2 Living Treatment Center at the BNK Busan Bank Training Center on the 14th.

With the opening of this living treatment center, the Gwanggaeto Hall at Pukyong National University will operate an overall management team, medical support team, facility management team, order maintenance team, and rescue and first aid team.

President Jang Young-su of Pukyong National University actively worked to open and operate the living treatment center, personally persuading members. The Gwanggaeto Hall at Pukyong National University is not in use due to non-face-to-face classes.

President Jang Young-su stated, "Although it is a difficult situation not only for our university but for everyone, all members of the university have united their hearts to fulfill the public responsibility of a national university and to overcome the national crisis. I hope the COVID-19 situation will be resolved as soon as possible."
