The Youngtong 1-dong Defense Council (Chairman Kwon Tae-heon) in Youngtong-gu, Suwon City announced that on June 29, approximately 30 members of the Defense Council and leaders from various organizations participated in a military camp experience day at a military unit (51st Division) located in Biibong-myeon, Hwaseong City.
During the visit to the military unit, participants watched security-themed videos about "Sorrow of Connecting with the North," which raises awareness of human rights violations in North Korea, and toured the military barracks facilities. They also changed into military uniforms and had hands-on experience with military training, including survival shooting and battlefield noise simulation.
An Ok-ja, president of the Youngtong 1-dong Residents' Association, said, "Having the rare opportunity to directly experience military camp life in our region allowed me to feel deeper gratitude toward soldiers and those who sacrificed their lives for the nation."
