[Asia Economy Reporter Han Jinju] The Ministry of Gender Equality and Family is conducting a family practice campaign for the Lunar New Year holiday.

On the 3rd, the Ministry of Gender Equality and Family launched a campaign emphasizing the health and safety of families amid the COVID-19 situation. The campaign encourages refraining from travel during the Lunar New Year holiday and adhering to quarantine guidelines to prevent the spread of COVID-19, while fostering a holiday atmosphere where families equally share caregiving and household chores.

Various public participation events will be held during the holiday period. Until the 14th, the Ministry of Gender Equality and Family website is hosting the event "Let's Share Warm Lunar New Year Greetings Together," where people can leave greetings and words of encouragement for family or relatives they cannot meet due to COVID-19. Until the 7th, the ministry’s Facebook page is also running the event "Mission! Complete the Lunar New Year Blessing Message," where participants play a simple maze game to uncover a secret message.

At nationwide Healthy Family Support Centers and Multicultural Family Support Centers, various non-face-to-face family participation programs are being offered to help share affection among family members, including ▲distribution of rice cake soup making kits ▲online "Mom and Dad’s Country" holiday experience ▲virtual ancestral rites table meetings.
