On
Thursday, June 27, 2024, Seoyon E-Hwa’s Ulsan Plant, in collaboration with the
Buk-gu Office and the Buk-gu Volunteer Center, held the "Movie Day for
People with Disabilities" event. Designed to provide cultural experiences
for individuals with disabilities, who often face restrictions on outdoor
activities, this annual event has been conducted for the third time,
consistently drawing high attendance and positive feedback from participants.
This year, approximately 120 individuals attended, including residents and
staff from Echo Hill, Our Home Disability Shelter, Disability Welfare Center,
and staff from the Buk-gu Volunteer Center.
Before
the movie screening, attendees watched a gratitude video created by disability
institutions and a promotional video of Seoyon E-Hwa. A "Breaking the
Gourd" event, prepared by the welfare center, was also held. In sync with
the enthusiastic cheers of the attendees, Seoyon E-Hwa’s labor and management
teams, along with the mayor of Buk-gu, broke the pot, revealing a message
inside: "Seoyon E-Hwa labor and management, thank you very much."
Participants expressed gratitude, stating that the event brought them a small
joy amidst their routine lives.
For
individuals with hearing and developmental disabilities, watching a movie
without assistance can be challenging. Recognizing that cultural activities,
which many take for granted, involve numerous obstacles for people with
disabilities, we rent an entire theater each year to ensure a comfortable
viewing environment. Seoyon E-Hwa’s labor and management teams assisted with
guidance to the theater and seating arrangements. To enhance the movie
experience, we provided popcorn and beverages essential for enjoying a movie.
During the screening, we performed "assistant roles," including
restroom guidance and support in case of emergencies, ensuring a safe and
enjoyable event.
After
the movie, Seoyon E-Hwa’s labor and management teams helped participants safely
return home and cleaned the theater surroundings, ensuring the event concluded
smoothly. Many participants and welfare organization staff expressed their
gratitude with smiles. Seoyon E-Hwa’s labor and management teams felt equally
fulfilled, bringing the attendees a bit of happiness.
Seoyon
E-Hwa will continue to support the cultural life and social integration of
people with disabilities, maintaining ongoing interest and assistance for
underprivileged communities.
