[Asia Economy Reporter Jongil Park] Dongdaemun-gu (Mayor You Deok-yeol) will provide reopening cost support to ‘small business stores’ experiencing difficulties due to closures and quarantine measures following visits by COVID-19 confirmed cases.

The district will support up to 3 million KRW for necessary expenses such as materials, promotional marketing costs, and utility bills when reopening the eligible stores. For stores that received support funds for damages caused by confirmed case visits in the first half of 2020, only the difference after deducting the previously received amount will be paid.

To assist with the application process, the district received a list of businesses visited by COVID-19 confirmed cases and disinfected from the public health center and sent application guidance notices to eligible stores.

Eligible stores can visit the Small Business Promotion Team on the B2 floor of Dongdaemun-gu Office by the 23rd and submit a small business verification certificate, proof of reopening expenses, application form, and other documents.

Detailed support criteria and other information can be found on the Dongdaemun-gu Office website.

Previously, from February to July, Dongdaemun-gu supported a total of 56 small business stores suffering from difficulties due to visits by COVID-19 confirmed cases with a total of 135 million KRW.

You Deok-yeol, Mayor of Dongdaemun-gu, stated, “We hope this support project will provide practical help to small business owners who have suffered significant damage to their operations due to visits by COVID-19 confirmed cases.”
