Hallym University Medical Center Donates All Fundraising Funds to Werenwu...a warm heart to the treatment of a fireman affected by burns
Nov 14, 2025
Hallim University Medical Center (Director Kim Yong-sun) donated all 50 million won to support the treatment of firefighters who suffered burns on the 5th anniversary of the non-face-to-face donation marathon "WeRunWero".
The Werenwiro campaign is a representative social contribution activity of Hallym University Medical Center that has been held every year since 2021, supporting treatment for burn patients and firefighters.
On November 6, Hallim University Medical Center held a ceremony to celebrate the 5th anniversary of the Wiran Wiro at the Doheon Hall of Ilsong Academy, a school corporation in Yeongdeungpo-gu, Seoul, and donated the entire fundraising amount to the Hallim Video Foundation. More than 40 people attended the event, including Yoon Hee-sung, chairman of Ilsong Academy, chairman of the Hallym Film Foundation, Heo Jun, head of the planning and coordination department of Ilsong Academy, and Ohda-jung, CEO of Doctor Solution.
At the ceremony, a commemorative video of the five-year campaign was screened, and the Hallim Film Foundation shared the details of the cumulative donation of 180 million won. The donations delivered will be used for medical expenses, rehabilitation treatment, and trauma recovery programs for firefighters affected by the fire. In particular, 'Firefighter Trauma 119 Academy', co-developed by the Department of Psychiatry at Hallym University Kang Sungsim Hospital and the Hallym Burn Foundation using donations, is a specialized treatment program for psychological wound recovery and social rehabilitation.
This event was also held for the first time in-person learning, including the 5th anniversary ceremony. About 80 people, including key medical center officials and team leaders from each department, participated in the donation by selecting a 3-kilometer walking or 5-kilometer running course in Yanghwa Hangang Park on the day of the event.
In many parts of the country, they participated in the campaign in a non-face-to-face format, showing a fever of sharing. It received explosive attention even before the recruitment, and 1,000 people closed early within three days of receiving applications for participation. The additional 500 people also closed in just three days, attracting a total of 1,500 participants, the largest number ever. Since then, participants have shared authentication photos and messages of support through SNS, spreading the culture of sharing with the hashtag '#WirrenWiro'.
Chairman Yoon Hee-sung expressed his deep respect and consolation to firefighters and their families who are committed to the safety of our society even at this moment. We hope that the campaign will become Korea's representative social contribution campaign that creates a virtuous cycle of sharing and comfort. In addition, "I would like to express my deep appreciation to the sponsors such as Adector, who has been a strong partner in the Werenwu campaign for five consecutive years from 2021 to this year, and Baek San-soo, who has been sharing warm hearts for two years."
The Werenwiro campaign is a representative social contribution model of Hallym University Medical Center that combines ESG practice and a healthy lifestyle beyond simple donations. Since 2021, the first year of the campaign, 5,890 people have participated so far, totaling 180 million won in cumulative donations. The donation has been used in various fields, including medical expenses for burn patients, trauma treatment for firefighters, and support for children and adolescents from low-income families, and has continued to provide practical support to socially disadvantaged and fire victims.
