"Abundant Chuseok Table"... Eunpyeong-gu Hosts Direct Market for Agricultural and Specialty Products

Direct Trade Market for Chuseok on the 15th-16th Held Face-to-Face for the First Time in 4 Years

Eunpyeong-gu (Mayor Kim Mi-kyung) announced that it will hold the 'Chuseok Agricultural and Specialty Products Direct Market' for two days from the 15th to the 16th at Susaek Station Plaza to celebrate the Chuseok holiday.

The agricultural and specialty products direct market had not been held for the past four years due to COVID-19, but with the return to normal life, it has been organized as an in-person event starting this year. The direct market will be held as a side event of the Happiness Sharing Companion Festival, and cultural events such as concerts will also be prepared for visitors to enjoy.

Ten sister cities of Eunpyeong-gu, including Chungcheongnam-do, Seocheon-gun, Gapyeong-gun, Sinan-gun, Imsil-gun, Jinan-gun, Changnyeong-gun, Hamyang-gun, Hongcheon-gun, Wando-gun, and Gunsan-si, will participate in this direct market. They plan to sell excellent local specialty products such as salted seafood, salt, grains, cheese, and mushrooms at prices lower than the market price.

Kim Mi-kyung, Mayor of Eunpyeong-gu, said, "I hope this direct market will help residents who feel burdened preparing for the Chuseok holiday due to high prices and also support the farmers in our sister cities."
