[Asia Economy Reporter Ryu Tae-min] The Housing and Urban Guarantee Corporation (HUG) announced on the 25th that it had donated 200 million KRW in relief funds to the Gyeongbuk Uljin area, which was designated as a special disaster zone due to the recent wildfires on the 23rd.

On that day, Kwon Hyung-taek, President of HUG, visited the office of Assemblyman Park Hyung-soo (Gyeongbuk Yeongju, Yeongyang, Bonghwa, Uljin), who has been actively supporting wildfire recovery and aid for disaster victims, to hold a donation ceremony.

HUG had previously donated 100 million KRW to Uljin, Gyeongbuk, on the 17th to support wildfire recovery efforts. In response to Assemblyman Park Hyung-soo's request to realize and expand housing cost support, HUG agreed and provided an additional 100 million KRW to Uljin, the area most severely affected.
