The National Tax Service announced that Commissioner Lim Gwanghyun attended the 60th Taxpayers' Day government awards ceremony, held at COEX in Seoul on the 3rd, and offered congratulations and thanks to exemplary taxpayers, tax cooperation contributors, and recipients of the High Amount Taxpayer Award.

The National Tax Service posted the achievements of exemplary taxpayers on the bulletin boards and websites of its offices, and sent out an album of letters expressing respect and gratitude for faithful tax payment.

On this day, the Gold Tower Order of Industrial Service Merit was awarded to Sung Kwang Bend, and the Silver Tower Order of Industrial Service Merit went to Deoksan Pharmaceutical Industrial.

This year marks the 60th anniversary of the founding of the National Tax Service, and the agency plans to widely promote its direction of putting citizens first in tax administration. In particular, through the promotional slogan, "The National Tax Service at Sixty, We Will Listen Even More Closely to the Voice of the People," the agency expressed its commitment to more deeply listen to the public and reflect their voices in tax policy, in keeping with the meaning of sixty years.

Additionally, throughout March, the National Tax Service will produce and distribute promotional videos and posters commemorating the 60th anniversary and expand communication with the public through online events using social networking service (SNS) channels.

The annual tax-themed art contest, which previously targeted only youth, has expanded its eligibility to all citizens for the 60th anniversary. This year's contest will be held in four categories-essay, poster, comic, and short-form video-with topics including "The National Tax Service I Wish For," "Stories of Taxes in Everyday Life," and "The Necessity of Taxes and the Importance of Faithful Tax Payment."

The National Tax Museum will also hold a special exhibition titled "A Life Celebration: Commemorating the National Tax Service at Sixty" in April to mark the agency's 60th anniversary.
