The event took place on November 18 at the outdoor parking lot of Jaseng Korean Medicine Hospital in Gangnam-gu, Seoul, with employees from Jaseng Medical Foundation, Jaseng Korean Medicine Hospital, and around 50 members of the Jaseng Volunteer Group from the Seoul and Gyeonggi regions participating. Now in its 15th year, the Kimchi Sharing with Love event has been held annually since its launch in 2009.

This year as well, the volunteer group was involved in every stage of the kimchi-making process from early in the morning, including preparing and salting cabbages, mixing seasonings, and packaging, making approximately 800 kilograms of kimchi. The kimchi prepared that day was delivered to 150 vulnerable households near Nowon and Boramae Jaseng Korean Medicine Hospitals. Jaseng Medical Foundation explained that the event not only supports vulnerable groups but also helps local farms supplying the kimchi ingredients, thereby contributing to the sustainability of agriculture.

Park Byungmo, Chairman of Jaseng Medical Foundation, said, "We organized this event to share kimchi, which is essential for winter, with neighbors in need," adding, "We will continue to engage in various social contribution activities and work together with the local community."
