More than 40 employees participated, engaging in recovery activities such as dismantling and supporting the operation of shelters for disaster victims, distributing and organizing relief supplies, and visiting the Samhwa 2-ri village hall to clean and organize the environment so that evacuees could stay comfortably.

An employee who participated in the volunteer work said, "It was heartbreaking to see the residents who actually suffered damage, but I was glad to be able to contribute even a little," and added, "Since a lot of help is needed, I will continue to participate in volunteer activities supporting wildfire recovery so that local residents can return to their daily lives as soon as possible."

Director Lee Seyong stated, "I felt somewhat relieved to be able to extend a helping hand to neighbors who lost their livelihoods and were left in despair due to the sudden wildfire, and we will continue to provide additional support to help with the recovery in the Yeongdeok area." He added, "Beyond simple recovery support, we will also consider ways to revitalize the local economy so that residents can rebuild the foundation of their lives."
