Jusarang Community Church (Baby Box) Home-Hosted Lunch, Han River Views
One blustery winter morning, Pastor Lee Jong-Rak woke to find a baby freezing in a cardboard box on his doorstep. Horrified, he installed a temperature-controlled "drop box," entirely funded by private donations, in the wall of his home to provide a safe way to anonymously leave unwanted children. Since then, more than 1,600 newborns have been left.
The church also helps single mothers facing this problematic decision with temporary shelter, food, and monetary support.

Our Home-Hosted Lunch with a retired elementary school principal featured the traditional meal, bibimbap, combined with rice, mushrooms, seasonal vegetables, beef, kimchi, and fried egg served in a bowl.
After much laughter, we finished our meal with a cup of tea.
