This laptop delivery was carried out to support teenagers who lost their homes in the large-scale wildfire that occurred in Gangneung on the 11th of last month. The laptops, worth approximately 30 million KRW donated by LG Uplus, were distributed to teenagers in need of practical support through the Gangneung Office of Education. The teenagers plan to use the laptops for remote classes and after-school study.

Earlier, immediately after the Gangneung wildfire, LG Uplus visited the site to provide support such as smartphone charging stations and free Wi-Fi for residents who had evacuated urgently. The laptop delivery to teenagers is a follow-up activity after the emergency relief efforts.
