The charity work is part of volunteer activities that the group has conducted in the locality from October 16-20, which also include Korean language teaching for local children, as well as art, sports activities and folk games of Vietnam and the RoK, said Deputy Secretary of the provincial Youth Union, and President of the Vietnam Youth Federation's Ben Tre chapter Phan Thanh Tre.

Kang Seohyun, a volunteer of the RoK’s Dream School organization, said that thanks to the program, she and other members of the group have had the chance to explore the culture of the Mekong Delta region. They were very impressed with the food and affection of Ben Tre people. They will bring these memories back to Korea and tell others about them.
