Escaping Cold Meals... Dalseo Senior Welfare Center Honors Devotion to the Nation with a Warm Meal

A Warm Meal Brings Comfort and Courage
to Elderly Individuals Living Alone

"I used to get by every day with just kimchi and cold soup, but being served a warm meal like this makes me feel like I have a reason to keep living."

In June, the Month of Patriots and Veterans, an elderly man in his eighties was moved to tears at a Korean restaurant in Dalseo-gu, Daegu.

Dalseo Senior Welfare Center is providing meals to 30 elderly men living alone who are at risk of malnutrition.

On June 11, Dalseo Senior Welfare Center invited 30 elderly men living alone who are at risk of malnutrition and have devoted themselves to the country, providing them with a warm meal.

This meal support was made possible by the generous sponsorship of the KBS Kang Tae-won Welfare Foundation. The initiative aims not only to ease the financial burden but also to support the meals of elderly individuals who may be socially isolated, providing them with emotional stability and opportunities for social interaction.

The KBS Kang Tae-won Welfare Foundation, established in memory of the late Kang Tae-won and with the support of KBS, continues to extend a helping hand to neighbors in need and contributes to the spread of a culture of giving.

One of the elderly participants at the meal expressed his gratitude, saying, "It was always difficult to prepare meals, so my table was always cold, but I am truly thankful to be served such a heartfelt meal."

Kim Jin-hong, Director of Dalseo Senior Welfare Center, stated, "The dining support program for elderly individuals living alone is an important project that goes beyond simply providing meals, as it fulfills emotional and social needs. I ask for the community's continued interest in the future, and once again express my gratitude to the KBS Kang Tae-won Welfare Foundation."
