[Asia Economy Reporter Hyunju Lee] The sanitary pad purchase voucher supported by the Ministry of Gender Equality and Family will be available for use at Homeplus starting from the 7th.


This voucher, which can also be used at Emart, Lotte Mart, and Nonghyup Hanaro Mart, provides a monthly support amount of 11,000 KRW. It is issued in the form of a card voucher containing the purchase cost so that low-income female adolescents aged 11 to 18 can buy sanitary pads.



Applications can be made by the adolescent herself or by a guardian (parent or primary caregiver) through the Bokjiro website and application. It is also possible to apply in person at the community service center (dong resident center) or the eup/myeon office of the resident registration address.
