[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Hwang Choi Hyun-joo] Changwon City in Gyeongnam announced on the 6th that it will offer a 20% discount on the regular price for one month, as the number of users of the moving boat, a boat-type leisure facility in Yongji Lake Park, is expected to exceed 100,000 this month.


The moving boat, which opened in September 2017, surpassed 100,000 users in 2 years and 10 months. It is an electric rechargeable boat that can move without rowing, and can accommodate up to 8 people.


The usage fee is 20,000 KRW for 30 minutes based on 4 people, and varies depending on the number of passengers and time.


Applying a 20% discount rate until the 31st of this month, a 20,000 KRW ticket can be purchased for 16,000 KRW. Also, operating hours are from 2 PM to 10 PM on Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday, and from noon to 10 PM on Saturday and Sunday. However, it is closed on Monday and Tuesday.
