[Asia Economy Reporter Lim Chunhan] NS Home Shopping announced on the 30th that the fallen fruit apple sharing event held at its Pangyo headquarters was very popular.

About 2 tons of fallen fruit prepared for this event were all sold out in 42 minutes, with a long waiting line forming even before the start. The event was broadcast live through the live commerce platform Enra Bang, and the sale of imperfect apples from fruit trees was also conducted, helping to support local farmers.

An NS Home Shopping official said, "We will continue to strive for coexistence with farmers, who are the foundation of healthy Korean food, and will spare no effort to support the development of sales channels for agricultural, fishery, and livestock products to receive fair prices."
