Korean churches and organizations are raising funds to pay for medical care for a severely injured Mongolian man. 

Turmumkh, 20, hovers between life and death in a Mongolian hospital following being beaten last February. He was injured while working as an official at a local wedding hall. 

A story on Turmumkh was reported in September on a Mongolian television network in South Korea. When Yoo Ssang-dae, a South Korean watching the program learned of the story, he decided to raise money to bring Turmumkh to Korea for medical treatment. 

``Turmumkh wants to have medical treatment in Korea,'' Yoo Ssang-dae, a volunteer at a welfare organization told the Korea Times. ``We plan to request churches and welfare organizations here to donate money to help the Mongolian. I always welcome anybody who contacts me to help him.''
