[Asia Economy Reporter Park Jong-il] Songpa-gu (Mayor Park Seong-su) announced on the 29th that Skin Idea, a local company, practiced neighborly love with a generous donation worth 600 million KRW to low-income families facing a lonelier year-end than usual due to the infectious disease crisis.


Skin Idea is a cosmetics specialist company located in Munjeong Biz Valley, Songpa-gu, equipped with a system that allows product development and production to be handled at its headquarters.


They export skincare specialty products developed with numerous patented technologies to 50 countries worldwide and have continuously engaged in donation activities through the Community Chest of Korea.


This sponsorship was promoted as part of the ‘2021 Hope Ondol Warm Winter Project,’ with Skin Idea expressing their intention to support low-income residents in Songpa-gu to practice neighborly love.


The sponsored items include approximately 39,000 units of the company’s representative products such as skin toner, lotion, cream, and essence.


The donation’s converted value reached about 584 million KRW, marking the largest single sponsorship amount within Songpa-gu this year.


On the 21st, the district held a sponsorship ceremony at the district office and plans to deliver the items to struggling families through 21 neighborhood community centers and 12 social welfare facilities.


Songpa-gu Mayor Park Seong-su said, “We sincerely thank the local company for their generous support amid the COVID-19 crisis, which has reduced the number of helping hands. We will continue to strengthen support for companies so that their growth leads to a virtuous cycle, revitalizing the local economy and fostering neighborly love in Songpa.”
