[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters, Reporter Oh Hwan-joo] Song Nam-su, chairman of the Mangun-myeon Prosperity Association in Muan-gun, Jeollanam-do, is setting an example in the community by fully sponsoring eye surgery costs for a student from a financially disadvantaged family.

On the 23rd, according to Muan-gun, after hearing the story of Kim (15, female), who has strabismus but could not afford surgery due to financial difficulties, from the Muan Women's Counseling Center (Director Song Ok-joo), he decided to cover the full cost of the surgery.

Kim was born with strabismus and had low self-esteem to the extent that she could not socialize with friends for 15 years, but thanks to this surgery, she has gained confidence and can now live a new life.

Kim expressed her gratitude, saying, "With this help, I have gained the confidence to look at the world proudly. I will never forget the kindness shown to me and will study hard to become someone who helps neighbors in need."

Chairman Song Nam-su said, "I will continue to pay more attention to neighbors in need around us and strive to make Mangun-myeon a happy place where everyone can live well."

Song Ok-joo, director of the Muan Women's Counseling Center, stated, "More interest and support are needed for a community where we live together. I am grateful to Chairman Song Nam-su for sharing his sincerity and heart to help neighbors in need during these difficult times of COVID-19."
