An anonymous donor has appeared in Jeonju, North Jeolla Province, secretly leaving behind 100 sacks of rice while expressing that they are also going through difficult financial circumstances.
The Jochon-dong Community Center in Jeonju announced that an unidentified benefactor has donated 100 10-kilogram sacks of white rice.
This amounts to approximately 4 million won at market value.
The rice was delivered in two separate installments of 50 sacks each, immediately after phone calls were made to the community center on July 6 and 30.
The donor started by saying, "I am also not well off and am facing difficult circumstances myself."
They went on to express their intention, stating, "I wanted to share a little warmth with neighbors who are struggling even more," and added, "I want to continue making donations when the upcoming year-end arrives."
At the same time, they ultimately refused to reveal their name.
Lee Wook, the head of Jochon-dong local government, expressed his gratitude, saying, "I sincerely thank the anonymous benefactor for showing such warmth despite being in a difficult situation themselves."
He also added, "We will carefully deliver this to neighbors in need so that the warm sentiment you have sent can serve as comfort and hope."
