This event was organized to promote sustainable environment and ecological conservation, with participation from the university community.

"Beorijima;ket" is a flea market directly planned by students taking the liberal arts course "Sustainable Environment and Fashion" at Daegu Catholic University.

The students organized and sold unused clothing, and all proceeds were donated to the local environmental organization, Daegu Environmental Movement Federation.

At "Heritage Closet," clothing and accessories donated by President Seong Han-gi and professors were sold.

All event proceeds were donated to local environmental protection organizations, and leftover clothing after sales was delivered to Anna School in Cambodia and Jisik Eerdem School in Mongolia.

Professor Yang Jeong-eun of the Fashion Design Department said, "I hope this was a meaningful time for students to directly experience and practice the importance of sustainable consumption and environmental protection."
