With this ceremony, seven new Sharing Heroes have joined, bringing the total number of Sharing Heroes in Dong-gu to 32, including 25 from the first and second terms. The district continues to lead the spread of a culture of sharing in the region.

Park Heungcheol, Secretary General of the Gwangju Community Chest of Korea, said, "I deeply appreciate the Sharing Heroes who willingly practiced sharing for the community," and added, "Going forward, Sarangui Yeolmae will continue to create a warm local community through various campaigns so that more citizens can participate in sharing."
