President Moon Jae-in will be donating his share of the government's COVID-19 emergency relief payment.
He and First Lady Kim Jung-sook are eligible to receive around 490 U.S. dollars... as a two-person household.
Moon has stressed the importance of donations, especially from the more privileged after the government decided to make the payments to all citizens, low-income or not.
The top office, however, stressed that the government is not pressuring people to donate,... saying that spending the money will also have a positive impact on the economy.
Meanwhile, President Moon will be making a special public address this Sunday,... to mark his third year in office.
It will be broadcast live at 11 AM from the presidential press center.
The president is expected to express his determination for Korea to overcome COVID-19... and lay out his policy visions for his remaining two years in office.
