[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Choi Soon-kyung] Hapcheon-gun, Gyeongnam Province, operated the "Hapcheon-gun Residents' Blood Donation Day" at the county office plaza from 10 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. on the 19th.

This event was held to overcome the difficulty in blood supply caused by the prolonged COVID-19 pandemic, with 55 residents and public officials participating to take the lead in blood donation and create a social atmosphere of participation.

Residents including ordinary citizens, public officials, and university students who participated in the blood donation all said in unison the moment they were deemed eligible to donate blood, "We are glad to be able to help even a little for patients in need of transfusions."

Yoo Dong-woo (male, 29), affiliated with Jumok Construction, who received a commendation on Blood Donation Day in June for practicing blood donation 93 times, also participated this time, drawing attention for his practice of neighborly love.

Lee Mi-kyung, director of the health center, said, "I would like to express my gratitude to the residents and public officials who rushed to participate in blood donation at a time when blood supply is difficult due to the ongoing COVID-19 situation, and we will actively promote blood donation encouragement activities so that more residents can participate in the future."
