The Artfore shopping district is a cultural and artistic complex located at the Incheon Art Center and the starting point of Songdo Central Park.

Kim In-hyo, president of the Artfore shopping district merchants' association, emphasized, "The merchants' association made great efforts to have the shopping district designated as an alley-type shopping district to revive the depressed commercial area. As a result, about 85% of the stores have completed joining the Onnuri gift certificate system over the past year and are actively promoting it."


Minister Oh Young-joo said, "This year, according to the alley-type shopping district revitalization policy, I visited to listen to the difficulties of the merchants and to seek revitalization plans together to provide customized support tailored to the characteristics of the site. Starting from the 17th, a two-week digital Onnuri gift certificate refund event will begin, and I hope it will be an event that energizes not only the customers visiting the shopping district but also the merchants."
