Since 2009, Dong-A Socio Holdings has held the Love Sharing Bazaar annually to promote a culture of donation, foster community development, and share love with marginalized groups. This year's Love Sharing Bazaar was held for the first time in four years due to COVID-19. Volunteer teams composed of employees from affiliates such as Dong-A Socio Holdings, Dong-A ST, and Dong-A Pharmaceutical sold their products at affordable prices to local residents. Companies based in Dongdaemun-gu also participated in the Love Sharing Bazaar, contributing to the creation of a community-oriented culture.
Baek Sang-hwan, CEO of Dong-A Pharmaceutical, said, "Thanks to the generous support of local residents, we were able to donate to the Dongdaemun-gu Social Welfare Council this year. We are grateful to everyone who participated in the Love Sharing Bazaar and will continue to strive to support neighbors in need."
