Numerous media outlets in South Korea have been reporting on the many activities conducted by Shincheonji Volunteer Group for nationwide community development, particularly during the emerging 'post-COVID' era. Most recently, from the 27th of last month to the 2nd of May, Shincheonji Volunteer Group Ansan branch conducted its 'Wall Story' programme in Palgok neighbourhood, Sangnok district, Ansan city.

'Wall Story', which celebrated its 10th anniversary this year, is an urban regeneration project that creates a pleasant urban environment by redecorating old murals.

In accordance with the wishes of Korean War veterans that flowers be drawn in honour of their comrades lost through the tragic and fratricidal war, butterflies, sunflowers, daisies, and hydrangea were painted on the murals. The sunflowers represent longing and respect, hydrangeas represent true love, and daisies symbolise hope and peace. Respect and longing for comrades whose lives were robbed by war, and the desire of many people for a world of peace were captured in the mural.

One resident who watched the mural work said, “It's good to see the neighbourhood brightened up because of the mural,” and served fruit and drinks.

An official from the Ansan branch of Shincheonji Volunteer Group said, “We want to spread joy to many people through our service and commitment to local community development.”
