The Hanmaeum Blood Center of the Korea Industrial Health Association will hold its 14th blood donor appreciation festival, the "Sarangnanum Festival," at Gwanglim Arts Center BBCH Hall on Nov. 28, starting at 1:20 p.m., featuring a performance of the musical "A Tale of Two Cities."
Now in its 14th year, the event was organized to express gratitude to blood donors who voluntarily give blood to save lives and to share the value of blood donation.
Before the performance, a ceremony will be held to appoint blood donation ambassadors and present certificates of appreciation to organizations that have contributed to promoting a culture of blood donation. After the show, actor Shin Sung-rok and other cast members will deliver words of thanks to the donors in attendance. Hanmaeum Blood Center Director Hwang Yu-seong said he hopes "even a small measure of gratitude and respect can be conveyed to those who have practiced the precious act of sharing life through blood donation this year," adding that the center will "continue to create opportunities for blood donors so they can feel pride in what they do." Applications to attend can be submitted through the Hanmaeum Blood Center's official website until Nov. 19.
