Gangnam-gu Delivers 500 Boxes of 'Love Kimchi' with Saemaeul Women's Association

On the 8th, went to Goesan, Chungbuk, a cabbage production area, to make kimchi directly, and held a delivery ceremony at the district office main building on the 9th

Gangnam-gu (District Mayor Jo Seong-myeong) will hold a "Sharing Love Kimchi Making" event on the 9th at 9:30 AM in the main building of the district office together with the Saemaeul Women's Association.

The president of the Gangnam-gu Saemaeul Women's Association (President Park Soo-kyung) and seven executives traveled to their sister city, Goesan-gun in Chungbuk, on the 8th, the day before the sharing event, to make kimchi using napa cabbages harvested from the mountains and domestic seasonings. On the 9th, about 30 members including the president will participate in a delivery ceremony in front of the district office main building to distribute 500 boxes of kimchi (each 10kg, totaling 5,000kg) to 470 vulnerable households in 22 neighborhoods and three child welfare facilities.

The Saemaeul Women's Association took the lead in creating a warm community by delivering 120 containers of 3kg each of homemade radish kimchi (kkakdugi) to 120 low-income vulnerable households and elderly living alone in June. In December, they plan to prepare side dishes and deliver them to vulnerable groups.

Jo Seong-myeong, Mayor of Gangnam-gu, expressed his gratitude, saying, "I appreciate the hard work of the Saemaeul Women's Association who sincerely make kimchi every year during kimchi-making season by visiting the cabbage production areas with love for neighbors." He added, "This year as well, we will gather helping hands for neighbors in need so that vulnerable groups can have a warm winter."
