Is There Such a Young Person in the World?... Intern Donates 7 Million Won Saved Over Half a Year
A Young Man in His 20s Donates 7 Million Won, Half a Year’s Intern Salary, to Seongbuk District Office for Korean War Veterans... His Gratitude and Donation Honoring National Heroes Inspire the Community During Year-End and New Year
On the 29th of last month, a young man in his 20s, Kim Jaesung, donated 7 million won to the Seongbuk District Office in Seoul (District Mayor Lee Seungro).
Kim Jaesung visited the Seongbuk District Office on his way home after completing a six-month internship, expressing his wish to donate the salary he had earned during that time.
Kim Jaesung stated, “I contemplated whether to donate to those who have led our country's future or those who will lead it,” and added, “I thought support for the heroes who built and rightly led our country is more urgent, so I decided to donate for the 6.25 War veterans.”
Lee Seungro, Mayor of Seongbuk District, said, “I am grateful for the great heart and decision of this young man,” and expressed his intention to convey this sentiment to the 6.25 War veterans while presenting a certificate of appreciation.
In a social atmosphere where people are often busy worrying only about their own well-being, the donation by young Kim Jaesung, who does not forget the contributions of our nation's patriotic heroes and shares his gratitude, is becoming a warm example for the local community during the year-end and New Year season.
