  1. Are you going to join the walk too? I found the information from www.seoulwalking.or.kr that those who complete the course are eligible for such gifts as stomach cancer checkup vouchers, and MTB bicycles.

  2. I am trying to join the walk. However, there are some other important matters around the same time. I will try my best to move these matters to another time. If I join, it will not be because of the prizes but more for the welfare of handicaps.
