Lee Yeong-suk, the Vice-chairperson of the Busan Municipal Chapter, said in her opening speech, "The Partnership Ceremony for the Mentor-Mentee Program is one of the One to Five Movements to Meet with National Unification. Its purpose is to fill in the small gaps that the government cannot fulfill, so as to provide practical assistance to the North Korean refugees. NUAC will exert more efforts to help North Korean refugees successfully settle into South Korean society.”
Mentors and mentees attending the ceremony signed the letter of sister partnership for successful mentoring.
