Participating companies of the Gyeonggi Branch of the Korea Housing Builders Association will fully cover the costs of wallpapering and painting work, lighting replacement, sink replacement, and other minor home repair work with repair costs under 5 million KRW. The annual support volume will be decided through mutual consultation.

Suwon City will recommend beneficiaries in connection with existing home repair projects and jointly promote the support project.
