Back to business - Eun-ji's comeback in Gangnam
Eun-ji lost display cabinets and a cooler to the demolition of the market and needs $1,650 to reopen a flower stall and support the family.
🇰🇷 Seoul, South Korea2,636 views
For six years I have run a flower stall in Gangnam. In April, the demolition of the market took display cabinets and a cooler. I have no insurance, and the bank won't lend to me.
Before that, my customers came every Sunday, and I employed 3 people from the neighborhood. I have been out of business for 6 weeks.
This business pays my children's school fees and rent. I have already started working from home in small ways, but I can't meet orders without proper equipment.
Every contribution brings me closer to reopening, and I promise to post photos as I buy each item.
I'll buy equipment from local suppliers and post photos and receipts as I go.
Where the $1,650 goes:
• Replacing display cabinets and a cooler: $660
• Initial stock: seasonal flowers: $185
• Shop repairs and licensing: $450
• Working capital for the first month: $355
Glad we found this place.

I hope things turn around soon. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Greetings from Braunschweig.
how is Eun-ji doing now?
It takes guts to ask. Well done. Wish I lived closer to Granada so I could bring a meal. God bless!
thinking of you and your family. Shared this with my family. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Greetings from Bangkok
