[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Kim Yong-woo] Korea Hydro & Nuclear Power Gori Nuclear Power Headquarters is conducting the 'Gijang Love Mask Contest,' where residents create masks expressing their love for the region, until August 26.

However, the contest is somewhat unique. Participants must not only submit their works but also attach receipts from using restaurants in the Gijang area. In other words, a contest participation ticket is given to residents who promote local consumption.

This contest was prepared to discover mask designs that embody the characteristics and symbolism of the Gijang area, strengthen the will to overcome COVID-19, and help revitalize the local economy.

The submission method requires attaching a photo of the actual mask or a design draft made with images or phrases representing Gijang, such as local specialties or landmarks, along with a receipt of 20,000 KRW or more from using restaurants or cafes in Gijang County.

Submitted works will be judged and selected as Grand Prize (1 person), Excellence Award (2 persons), Encouragement Award (5 persons), and Honorable Mentions (10 persons), with a total prize money of 2.1 million KRW awarded.

Anyone interested can participate, and detailed information can be found on the Gori Headquarters website.

Lee Sin-seon, head of Gori Nuclear Power Headquarters, said, “Through this contest, we hope to raise interest in the Gijang area and contribute to revitalizing the local economy. Above all, we hope the community, exhausted by COVID-19, regains vitality.”
