[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Hwang Du-yeol] The Gijang-gun Federation of Life Improvement, a representative organization of women farmers, held a "Sharing Love Traditional Doenjang Event" at the Gijang-gun Agricultural Technology Center on the 12th to promote the excellence of our traditional food, traditional jang (fermented sauces).

The Gijang-gun Federation of Life Improvement conducts traditional jang transmission education annually with the purpose of practicing Korean-style food culture.

To preserve traditional food culture, the federation has been making traditional doenjang and soy sauce by hand, including ▲making doenjang ▲separating soy sauce ▲scooping doenjang.

This year, they provided traditional jang manufacturing technology education to marriage immigrants, raising awareness of the excellence of traditional food culture and the benefits of traditional jang.

To practice neighborly love sharing, the executives also donated 125 containers (250 kg) of traditional doenjang they made themselves to the Gijang-gun Happiness Sharing Division.

The donated items are scheduled to be delivered to socially vulnerable groups such as elderly living alone and basic livelihood security recipients through five towns and townships.

Shim Geum-ok, president of the Gijang-gun Federation of Life Improvement, said, "Through education and sharing events, we expect to contribute not only to providing healthy food using traditional jang and preserving traditional food culture but also to promoting the consumption of domestic agricultural products by using 100% domestically produced soybeans."
