○… Lee Yun-hee, the Grand National Party's preliminary candidate for Suwon mayor, agreed on the 24th to jointly promote the talent-sharing campaign "Let's Share Talents" in cooperation with the Korean Volunteer Council in his capacity as chairman of Samho Art Center. The candidate stated, "Samho Art Center has been addressing the cultural needs of Suwon citizens over the past four years by hosting free performances and traveling concerts every month," and added, "The talent-sharing campaign pursued by the Volunteer Council aligns with the spirit of service that Samho Art Center pursues, so I decided to participate."
Under this agreement, Samho Art Center will jointly host concerts and volunteer projects with the Korean Volunteer Council, and the art center's activities are expected to be elevated to the level of national and social development and national integration, which are the council's core values. Through this campaign, which emphasizes that sharing small talents from individuals brings joy to others, it is hoped that a culture of sharing will spread throughout the community.
Meanwhile, the candidate participated in a stick fighting competition held on the 25th at the garage of environmental sanitation workers in Jangan-gu, a stick fighting competition organized by the Local Government Officials Association where he met with former workplace colleagues to celebrate Daeboreum, and attended stick fighting competitions at Gwonseon Market merchants association and Maetan 3-dong, appealing for support.
○… Lee Jung-hwa, the Grand National Party's preliminary candidate for Suwon mayor, will hold a publication ceremony for his autobiographical essay collection, "Where the Road Ends, a New Road Begins," on the 26th at 3 p.m. at the Suwon World Cup Convention Center. The candidate introduced it as "a book in diary format that summarizes his nearly 30 years of public service and reflects on the experiences and feelings gained from his career."
Furthermore, he stated his sentiments regarding the book's publication: "Looking back on my life, where I made excuses for my busy public service and failed to fulfill my roles as a husband and father, I wanted to ask forgiveness from my family through at least this one book. Moreover, I wanted to take pride in my life, lived with no shame before the spirits of my late parents, looking up to heaven."
The candidate particularly emphasized, "I do not think it is appropriate to hold a grand publication ceremony by inviting renowned public figures as others do. In keeping with the true purpose of a publication ceremony, I plan to hold a modest event with only family members and close acquaintances I have been close to over the years."
