On the 14th, Changwon City in Gyeongnam held a herbal medicine support project agreement ceremony with the Changwon City Korean Medicine Association to promote citizens' health.

The Changwon City Korean Medicine Association is engaged in various medical volunteer activities such as the Changwon City Senior Citizens' Center Health Care Doctor Project, medical volunteer services at the Changwon City Mobile Workers' Shelter, and the Education Office's Priority Support Project for Educational Welfare.

Chairman Choi Jung-gi said, "Through the talent donation of the Changwon City Korean Medicine Association, we are continuously carrying out health promotion projects for those in need of health care," and added, "We will continue to participate in various social contribution activities in the future."

Mayor Hong Nam-pyo said, "I am grateful for the intentions of Chairman Choi Jung-gi of the Changwon City Korean Medicine Association and the many directors who continuously practice sharing. It is expected to greatly help improve the health of citizens."
