Sasang-gu Municipal Chapter of Busan, Mentoring Sisterhood Ceremony for Young North Korean Refugees
Sasang-gu, Busan, 2014-10-14 ~ 2014-10-14

The Sasang-gu Municipal Chapter of Busan (head: Lee Myeong-suk) held a sisterhood ceremony dubbed "Hand-in-Hand Mentoring" for young North Korean refugees last Oct. 14. A total of 70 mentor advisers, young mentees with their family, and officials concerned attended the ceremony. The Letter of Sisterhood was signed by Kim Su-jin, adviser and representative of the refugees.

During the ceremony, they decided to promote cultural experience jointly with a mentor and a mentee, visiting a school where they want to go, consulting on their future plan, and participating in the voluntary social service. In particular, free legal consulting by the International Law Firm -- which inked an agreement with the Sasang-gu Municipal Chapter of NUAC for cooperation -- was provided. On the other hand, free medical care was provided by Hankook Hospital to young North Korean refugees.
