[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Kang Sharon] Yangsan City, Gyeongnam Province, announced on the 7th that it held a consumption promotion event involving alleyway commercial districts and traditional markets in connection with the Korea Together Sale.

This event was prepared to recover commercial districts that experienced sales declines due to the novel coronavirus infection (COVID-19) and to revitalize the local economy by attracting customers.
