The Masan Branch of the Shincheonji Volunteer Group has created a commemorative mural honouring national heroes and expressing gratitude for their sacrifices.

Completed in collaboration with the Masan Chapter of the Defoliant Veterans Association of Korea, the mural was painted on the exterior wall of the branch office. The initiative aimed to promote remembrance and honour those who served the nation.

A total of 39 volunteers, including 37 internal and two external participants, took part over nine days, from 19th October to 5th November. The mural features soldier illustrations, heroic stories and messages of respect and appreciation for veterans.

Sam-sik Ha, Chairman of the Masan Branch, remarked, “The entrance used to resemble a warehouse, but addition of the soldier illustration now truly reflects our dedication to the country.” He added, “I believe this mural will become a local landmark.”

The project has already attracted attention from passers-by, with some expressing interest in similar mural projects.

A branch representative stated, “We prepared this mural as a small gesture of gratitude to those who dedicated themselves to the nation. We hope it will encourage citizens to reflect on the meaning of patriotism and foster continued cooperation and engagement with veterans' organisations.”
