Yeoju Headquarters Temple Solemnly Conducts the Devotional Offering Ceremony for the Summer Solstice
On June 21 (Lunar May 7) at 17:24, approximately 2,700 practitioners attended and solemnly conducted the Devotional Offering Ceremony for the Summer Solstice. Summer solstice (Haji) is the day of the year with the longest period of daylight, which is why it is also called 'Jangji'. It refers to around June 21 on the solar calendar when the sun reaches its highest altitude, daylight is the longest, and night is the shortest. Therefore, it is the time of 'Irum Sisaeng' (the beginning of the first yin phase) where the length of daylight gradually decreases from this point onward, and it is also the day with the highest solar radiation.

Bundang Jesaeng Hospital Becomes First in Southern Gyeonggi to Introduce AI-Based Digital Diagnostic Testing System
Bundang Jesaeng Hospital (Hospital Director Son Jeong-hwan) became the first in southern Gyeonggi Province to introduce an artificial intelligence (AI)-based digital diagnostic testing system, enhancing the accuracy and efficiency of blood cell analysis. The newly introduced system is a digital morphology analysis system that ultra-fast scans blood slides and automatically classifies cell images, such as white blood cells, red blood cells, and platelets, in a one-stop process using AI algorithms. The improvement in reading speed and the provision of standardized slides have reduced reading errors, contributing to enhanced accuracy in morphological cell diagnosis. Lee Seong-gyu, Chief of the Department of Laboratory Medicine at Bundang Jesaeng Hospital, stated, "AI technology plays a role in assisting medical staff to support more accurate and consistent readings. We will continue to expand our advanced digital infrastructure in the future to provide patients with reliable testing and contribute to improving the quality of medical care."
