The Ulsan Fire Headquarters announced on the 6th at 2 p.m. that Uldeul Hospital donated 5.5 million won on the 29th of last month to the family of the late Firefighter No Myung-rae, who died in the fire at a commercial building in Seongnam-dong, Ulsan, asking that it be delivered to them.


A representative of Uldeul Hospital said, “We deeply appreciate the noble self-sacrifice of the deceased and wanted to offer some comfort to the bereaved family who lost a precious loved one, so we decided to donate the funds.”
