The 'Thousand-Won Love Happy Table' is held every Friday, allowing isolated single-person households and vulnerable groups to enjoy a hearty lunch for only 1,000 won.


The Songjeong 1-dong Community Security Council supports the cost of ingredients based on local sponsorship and sharing, and the restaurant invites about 30 neighbors in need of care to provide rice, soup, and five side dishes.



All proceeds are donated at the end of the year to support neighbors in need of care.
