[Photo] Vehicles Flocking to Budget Gas Stations in the 'Era of High Oil Prices'

On the 6th, vehicles lined up at the budget gas station in Mannam Square Rest Area, Seocho-gu, Seoul, to refuel. Although the fuel tax reduction rate was increased from 30% to 37% starting this month, the decrease in fuel prices has been minimal, so consumers do not feel the impact. According to the Korea National Oil Corporation's oil price information site Opinet, as of the afternoon of the 5th, the average nationwide gasoline price at gas stations was 2,117.18 KRW per liter, down 3.40 KRW from the previous day, and the diesel price was 2,150.78 KRW per liter, down 2.30 KRW from the previous day. / Reporter Kim Hyun-min kimhyun81@
