The event, held on October 23, was organized as part of a project supported by the Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs. It is an annual program run by Gyeongnam Nonghyup to promote understanding of multicultural families within the local community and to support their stable settlement through improved family relationships.

This year, 15 multicultural families participated in the program, which began with smartphone fraud prevention education-including information on voice phishing and pharming-targeted at financially vulnerable groups. The program also featured a variety of rural experiences and activities such as family healing yoga, foot spa sessions, and tours of the rural theme park.

Ryu Gilnyeon, Head of Gyeongnam Nonghyup, stated, "Multicultural families are next-generation leaders of the local community and play a vital role as valued members of our agriculture and rural areas. Gyeongnam Nonghyup will continue to provide support and attention to ensure that multicultural families can settle stably in rural communities."
