Korea Racing Authority Let's Run Park Busan-Gyeongnam delivered 60 units of Hyojabal (walking aids) worth 15 million KRW to elderly residents with mobility difficulties living near the racetrack at Noksan-dong Administrative Welfare Center on the 18th.


Hyojabal is a walking aid designed for the elderly that helps them walk by holding and pushing the handles.

In addition to the Hyojabal support project, Let's Run Park Busan-Gyeongnam held a Hangung competition applying the advantages of the traditional game Tuho and the traditional martial art Gungdo for villages near the racetrack, and operates various social contribution programs such as supporting senior centers with supplies and helping neighbors in need.
