The event, held at the Yeoju City Senior Center, was attended by Lee Chungwoo, mayor of Yeoju City, National Assembly member Kim Seongyo, SK Hynix Vice President Jeong Sangrok, and Kim Byeongok, president of the Yeoju City Senior Citizens Association.

It was carried out in consultation with SK Hynix. The donated blood pressure monitors will be installed, one unit each, in 70 senior centers across 12 towns, townships, and neighborhoods, with consideration given to the number of users, medical vulnerability, and accessibility to nearby health resources.

Lee Chungwoo, mayor of Yeoju City, said, "I find it very meaningful that we are able to create real changes for the health of our seniors together with businesses," and added, "We will continue to expand health and welfare projects in cooperation with both the public and private sectors."

The head of the Yeoju City Health Promotion Division stated, "We will spare no effort in supporting a variety of regionally tailored health policies so that seniors can lead healthy and vibrant lives."
