KOTRA announced on the 17th that it donated 30 sets each of blankets and kitchen supplies to assist Ukrainian Koryoin who arrived at the Gwangju Koryoin Village, funded by contributions from its executives and employees.

The donated items were provided to the Koryoin Village Comprehensive Support Center. Approximately 30 to 40 Ukrainian Koryoin enter Korea sequentially every week, with about 300 having arrived so far and around 500 awaiting entry.

The Gwangju Regional Problem-Solving Platform is receiving donations of relief supplies such as food, bedding, daily necessities, and kitchenware from public institutions nationwide to help Ukrainian Koryoin wishing to settle in Gwangju Koryoin Village.

Yoo Jung-yeol, president of KOTRA, said, “We donated a small token of sincerity from our executives and employees to help the Ukrainian Koryoin compatriots affected by the war settle well in Korea,” adding, “We will continue to take the lead in solving regional issues that require assistance.”
