Daesun Brewery CEO Jo Woo-hyun said, “This award is especially meaningful and gratifying as it is the result of Red Cross activities that bring hope to the local community. We will continue to join the Red Cross’s journey and become a company that extends a warm hand to neighbors in welfare blind spots.”
