On January 23, Oh Eon-seok, the mayor of Dobong-gu, visited two busy local traditional markets ahead of the Lunar New Year holiday.
On that day, Mayor Oh visited Ssangmun Market and Banghak-dong Dokkaebi Market in order, engaging in conversations with the merchants. He stated, “I will do my best to support our traditional markets so that they can thrive and contribute to the further development of the local economy.” Earlier, on January 22, he visited Sindobong Market, Changdong Alley Market, Changdong Sinchang Market, and Baegun Market.
The district office is implementing measures to attract many visitors to traditional markets before and after the holiday. They operate a price stabilization task force to monitor the prices of essential Lunar New Year goods, ensuring that consumers can purchase products at affordable and reasonable prices. For convenience, temporary parking is allowed on roads around traditional markets (Banghak-dong Dokkaebi Market, Changdong Sinchang Market, Changdong Alley Market) from January 16 to January 30.
