Pukyong National University Peace Volunteer Group Shines at 'Turn Toward Busan' Event

Students from the National Pukyong National University Peace Volunteer Group, ‘Pukyong UN Supporters,’ actively participated in supporting the ‘Turn Toward Busan’ event held at the Busan UN Memorial Park on the 11th.

Turn Toward Busan is an annual international memorial day event held every November 11th to commemorate the sacrifices and contributions of the UN allied countries and UN veterans who participated in the Korean War to protect freedom and democracy, honoring the 22 countries’ UN fallen soldiers together with the public.

Students from the Pukyong UN Supporters are holding the Taegeukgi and other flags while participating in the 'Turn Toward Busan' tribute performance.

Pukyong UN Supporters is a peace volunteer group unique to Pukyong National University located in the UN Peace Special Zone. Since 2009, they have contributed to spreading peace and veterans’ culture by holding annual events to honor war veterans, and they participated in supporting this event at the request of the Ministry of Patriots and Veterans Affairs.

About 20 volunteer students participated as representatives of the future generation of students in the dedication performance ‘Eternal Alliance’ at the event held at the UN Memorial Park, supporting the overall event by displaying the UN flag, the Taegeukgi, and the flags of the 22 participating and supporting countries.

Pukyong UN Supporters continue to engage in various activities to practice the UN Sustainable Development Goals (UN-SDGs) by maintaining cooperation to spread veterans’ culture, participating in events such as the UN Forces Veterans Day and the 70th Anniversary of the Armistice Ceremony in July, followed by the Turn Toward Busan event.
