Songpa-gu Mayor Park Seong-su Shares 1,500kg of Seasonal Kimchi for Family Month

Seasonal Kimchi Delivered to 300 Single-Parent Families and Elderly Living Alone

[Asia Economy Reporter Jongil Park] Songpa-gu (Mayor Park Seong-su) will hold a seasonal kimchi sharing event on the 6th at Ogeum Park for 300 low-income households in celebration of Family Month in May.

This event will deliver 5kg of napa cabbage kimchi each, totaling 1,500kg, to 300 low-income single-parent families and elderly living alone.

First, to revitalize the local economy, napa cabbage kimchi made directly by a local kimchi factory (small business) will be packaged in the first stage, and Saemaeul Women's Association members will deliver it to the doorstep while adhering to non-face-to-face principles to prevent the spread of COVID-19.

Also, to commemorate Parents' Day on May 8, mini potted carnations will be presented to low-income elderly living alone.

The Saemaeul Women's Association also held sharing events last May and November, delivering about 6,500kg of kimchi to approximately 800 low-income households.

Park Seong-su, Mayor of Songpa-gu, said, "Through this sharing event, it will be a good opportunity to check on neighbors who are struggling due to the prolonged COVID-19 pandemic and to share our hearts," adding, "We will continue to pay attention to marginalized neighbors and carry out various support projects."
