[Suwon Ilbo=Reporter Eom In-yong] The Yangpyeong Comprehensive Volunteer Center (Director Lee Jong-hun) was selected for the Gyeonggi Province Volunteer Center's 'Citizens' Support Project' and successfully held a rest program titled 'Healing Magic in the Forest' on the 10th at the A-Plus Illdong Senior Welfare Center for vulnerable seniors.

The program was structured as a multi-sensory experience activity combining magic performances, forest storytelling, and woodcraft workshops, with emphasis on providing emotional healing and psychological stability to the seniors.

In particular, the magic performances conducted by the Yangpyeong Magic Volunteer Group and the magic experiences in which the seniors directly participated received strong responses, and the five-senses experience activities with a forest guide and woodcraft sessions provided a valuable opportunity to experience the healing power of nature.

Director Lee Jong-hun said, "Through the special medium of magic, we were able to have a meaningful time communicating with seniors and sharing laughter, and thanks to the sincere volunteer activities of those who participated in talent donation, all participants regained bright smiles," and added, "Moving forward, we will continue to expand healing and empathy programs so that diverse marginalized groups can discover hope in their lives."
