Paldal-gu Uman 2-dong Hosts Multicultural Awareness Education

Uman 2-dong held a visiting multicultural awareness improvement education session on the 10th, hosted by Suwon City and the Suwon Foreign Residents Welfare Center, with some 30 residents including neighborhood heads in attendance.

During the education session, presentations were made on the current state of South Korea's rapid transition into a multicultural society. A multicultural specialist instructor from China generated considerable interest by introducing Chinese culture while wearing traditional Chinese attire.

Park Ki-suk, chairperson of the neighborhood heads council who attended the education, said, "Through this education, my perspective on how we view multicultural residents has changed," adding, "They are people no different from us, so I will do my part to help them live well in Korea without facing discrimination."
