In particular, the consequences of Agent Orange do not stop at an individual but extend to families and future generations. Therefore, long-term care and sustained support are extremely important.
According to Mr. Kim Dae Jong, thanks to the companionship, sharing, and sense of responsibility of individuals and organizations, many victims have had the opportunity to receive treatment and livelihood support. But, most importantly, it has helped victims regain faith and hope to continue living and striving.
