[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Jong-hwa] Comprehensive paper company Kkaekkeutan Nara announced on the 17th that it participated in the '2021 VIRTUAL 815 RUN' campaign to reflect on the meaning of Liberation Day and donated funds.

The 2021 VIRTUAL 815 RUN is a participatory charity marathon event held to honor the patriots who devoted themselves to Korea's independence and to deliver a positive message, "It will be okay, Republic of Korea!" The donations and campaign proceeds will be used for improving the housing environment of the descendants of independence patriots through Habitat Korea.

Reflecting social distancing guidelines, participants on Liberation Day can choose their preferred time, place, and course to run, and complete the event by certifying their completion on Instagram with the required hashtags. The courses are 3.1 km commemorating the March 1st Movement, 4.5 km commemorating 1945, the year of liberation, and 8.15 km commemorating Liberation Day. Singer Sean, the campaign ambassador, will challenge completing 81.5 km on the same day.

Kkaekkeutan Nara, a domestic native comprehensive paper company, decided to support the descendants of independence patriots and will donate 8.15 million won this year as well as last year.

A representative of Kkaekkeutan Nara said, "We are pleased to participate again in this meaningful event to reflect on the significance of Liberation Day and express gratitude to the independence patriots. We will continue our efforts to create a healthy and clean world."
