Special Sale of 20 Million 식약처-Certified Masks for COVID-19 Prevention
Active Participation in Measures to Minimize Public Harm and Stabilize Livelihoods

[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Cheol-hyun] On the 13th, Public Shopping announced that it will allocate more than 60% of its broadcast schedule to related support products and seasonal goods sales broadcasts to stabilize prices. As the COVID-19 pandemic continues for a prolonged period, this is an active participation in the government's livelihood stabilization measures to minimize the damage to the public ahead of Chuseok, the nation's major traditional holiday.

Public Shopping will urgently schedule and broadcast national price stabilization products from the 14th to stabilize prices during the Chuseok period. The main products for sale include rice, kimchi, apples, red pepper powder, masks, tissue paper, and wet wipes, which are essential daily necessities. The selling price is offered at a discount of 10% to 54% compared to existing products by minimizing profits to stabilize prices.

With Chuseok expected to be a non-face-to-face holiday, the lineup of seasonal goods will be increased to more than 60%, focusing on agricultural and livestock products and seafood, which are widely used for ancestral rites and holiday gifts. Major products scheduled for sale include Hangwa sets, rice cakes, red ginseng, onion juice, Korean beef, dried yellow corvina, silver cutlassfish, and boiled octopus. Various special promotions supporting discounts and points accumulation will also be continuously conducted to promote sales.

Public Shopping will also sell KF94, KF-80, and KF-AD masks certified by the Ministry of Food and Drug Safety at special prices close to 'zero profit' due to the continued spread of COVID-19. A total of more than 20 million masks have been secured, and they will be sold through regular 60-minute broadcasts five times a week throughout September. The selling price per mask is 490 KRW for KF-AD, 590 KRW for KF-80, and 690 KRW for KF-94, with each set of 50 masks priced at 24,500 KRW, 29,500 KRW, and 34,500 KRW respectively.

A Public Shopping official said, "As COVID-19 prolongs, it is a difficult time for everyone, so Public Shopping plans to actively lead national price stabilization and continuously sell daily necessities."
