To take time to look around our neighbors and society and practice a sharing life that comes from the heart, Cheon Sarang Community Outreach Club hosts`Cheon Sarang Marathon’
every autumn at Seoul Grand Park, Gwacheon, to help children with heart diseases. As years go by, Cheon Sarang Marathon is introduced as a ‘warm-hearted marathon’ for every
one to participate in with his or her family. In 2011, a number of group participants by family and company joined the marathon. Contributed by all employees of DB Life,
a charity bazaar took place on the spot. Many popular celebrities and sports stars also attend the charity bazaar. The total amount of money raised will be used to cover
operating costs and sponsor children with heart diseases.

and participates in various broadcast programs as part of its effort to take social responsibilities to the community, environment and neighbors. Cheon Sarang Community
