Lee Hyeon-ju |
Since March 2018, he has been working as an assistant teacher to teach Hangeul to preschool children at the Multicultural Family Support Center in the county every Saturday.
Although his home is a 30-minute walk from the center, Lee is never absent and comes every Saturday, as the only volunteer there who regularly comes to volunteer on weekends.
Lee not only teaches Hangeul to the children but also takes care of them during break times.
Yoo provides selfless, thoughtful care

It doesn't have to be helping the needy. She helps the community hold events smoothly and her strength lies in catching the needs of others and supporting them.
For two years, Yoo has been volunteering for the county's troupe for "nongak," a Korean style of percussion music performed traditionally by farmers. At the troupe's performance every weekend, she greets audiences with a bright smile, helps them find seats and tidies up after the show.
Yoo says volunteering has taught her responsibility, cooperation and patience.
