Moon Junhee, Hapcheon County Governor, Continues Communication Efforts at Traditional Market

Campaign to Revitalize Traditional Markets for the Lunar New Year Holiday

[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Choi Soon-kyung] Hapcheon-gun, Gyeongnam announced on the 28th that it conducted a traditional market usage campaign to revive the stagnant economy and revitalize traditional markets.

The campaign served as an opportunity to encourage market merchants struggling due to the prolonged COVID-19 pandemic and to invigorate traditional markets by purchasing holiday seasonal products directly using Hapcheon Love Gift Certificates.

In addition, efforts were made to monitor price trends of seasonal products in preparation for the holidays, provide guidance on price labeling systems, and stabilize prices.

County Governor Moon Jun-hee said, “Due to COVID-19, consumption has contracted and the local economy has stagnated, putting market merchants in a very difficult situation. I hope this traditional market revitalization campaign will empower merchants and residents and breathe new life into traditional markets.”
