[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters, Reporter Yoon Jamin] Kim Jaebong, Chief Director of Gwangju Shinsegae Eye Clinic, joined the 11th Red Cross Honors Club by donating 100 million KRW to the Gwangju-Jeonnam branch of the Korean Red Cross (Chairman Heo Jeong).


According to Gwangju Shinsegae Eye Clinic and the Korean Red Cross Gwangju-Jeonnam branch on the 26th, Director Kim Jaebong received the 'Red Cross Honors Club 11th Membership Plaque' on the 24th.


The Red Cross Honors Club is a group formed by high-value donors who have donated 100 million KRW or more through the Korean Red Cross to promote a culture of giving.


Director Kim pledged to donate 100 million KRW over five years, contributing 20 million KRW annually. He is the 186th member nationwide in the Red Cross Honors Club.


Director Kim said, "Providing the best medical services to local residents is a significant role, but I also believe it is an important duty to offer even small help to marginalized neighbors. I donated with the thought of giving back the love I received from the community, and I hope this donation helps spread a culture of sharing in the local society."


Director Kim previously donated 100 million KRW to the Community Chest of Korea in 2019 and has donated nearly 100 million KRW over several years through Chonnam National University, Gwangju Metropolitan Office of Education, and Gwangju Urban Railway Corporation.


In recognition of these contributions, he received the National Medal from the Financial Services Commission last year.



Meanwhile, since opening Gwangju Shinsegae Eye Clinic in 2009, Director Kim has won the 'Korea Consumer Satisfaction Index No.1' for five consecutive years. The clinic is recognized as the leading ophthalmology center in the Honam region, performing the highest number of Smile, LASIK, LASEK, ICL, presbyopia, and cataract surgeries in Gwangju and Jeonnam.
