Imsil-gun Opens SNS Special Event 'Dolsweo Neo Shopping - Kimjang Edition'

[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Park Nosik] Imsil County has launched a non-face-to-face SNS special event called ‘Dolsweo You (YOU) Shopping - Kimchi Making Edition’.

‘Dolsweo You Shopping’ is a non-face-to-face SNS special event planned by Imsil County to support local farms and businesses struggling due to COVID-19. It uses government employee models and has gained tremendous popularity by selling Imsil N Cheese and cheese sausages.

Accordingly, due to the prolonged COVID-19 situation, this year’s 5th Crispy Kimchi Making Festival, held non-face-to-face, is also accepting pre-registrations through the ‘Dolsweo You Shopping’ SNS.

Since the 5th, pre-registrations have been accepted via the Imsil N Seasoning Village Project Group website and phone, and from the 19th to the 30th, registrations are ongoing for 12 days through ‘Dolsweo You Shopping’.

‘Dolsweo You Shopping’ combines a cheerful music video featuring Dolsweo (Mr. Choi Giman from Gwanchon-myeon), a county office official, introducing trustworthy ingredients grown in clean Imsil and explaining how consumers can easily order online.

Applicants for the Kimchi Making Festival can click ‘Reserve Now’ at the bottom of the Dolsweo You Shopping video posted on the county office’s YouTube channel Imsil N TV, Facebook, and Instagram, which links to the Imsil N Seasoning Village Project Group website to pre-order their quantities.

In particular, during the event period, 450 purchasing customers will be selected by lottery to receive grilled Imsil N Cheese worth about 6,000 won. Additionally, kimchi making mat sets will be given free of charge to those who apply for the kimchi making set, providing an opportunity to receive both grilled cheese and a kimchi mat simultaneously.

The festival price is currently 175,000 won including delivery for a set of salted napa cabbage (20kg) and seasoning (10kg), and additional orders for salted napa cabbage, seasoning, and red pepper powder are also possible.

From the early stages of pre-registration, there were many inquiries from those wishing to apply, so the order volume was increased from the initial 50 tons to 70 tons, allowing many consumers to make kimchi with clean Imsil-branded agricultural specialty products.

County Governor Shim Min said, “We held this event four times until last year and the response was very good, so this year we increased the quantity so that many people can taste clean Imsil kimchi. We hope that by purchasing the kimchi making set consisting of salted napa cabbage and seasoning, families can safely mix and enjoy it at home.”

He added, “Unfortunately, this year’s Kimchi Making Festival will be held non-face-to-face, but once the COVID-19 situation ends, we will expand the event further to enhance consumer satisfaction in line with the clean Imsil image.”
