[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Yoon Jamin] In an apartment complex in Gwangsan-gu, Gwangju, various programs are being implemented to support residents exhausted by the prolonged COVID-19 pandemic, drawing attention.

The management office of Humansia Apartment in Suwan-dong, Gwangsan-gu, Gwangju Metropolitan City, has been operating a program every Wednesday and Thursday at 2 p.m. since last October to promote the health of senior citizens.

The program involves apartment residents gathering to exercise outdoors within the complex, enhancing their physical strength and refreshing their mood.

Participants expressed their joy, saying, "It’s difficult to go to the hospital alone due to physical discomfort, but the management office taking care of our health like this seems to improve our health and helps prevent depression, so it’s very good."

Recently, the resident volunteer group also distributed homemade grapefruit syrup and passion fruit syrup to residents at the senior center on the first floor of the management office, while checking in on each other’s well-being.

Song Kyung-eop, Head of the Residential Happiness Support Center at Humansia Complex 8, said, "We will make further efforts to help seniors with insufficient physical activity live healthily and energetically through consistent exercise."
