The store exhibits and sells representative specialty products of the Gurye area produced and handled by traditional markets and small business owners through online and offline platforms.

In particular, it is possible to purchase the exhibited products directly, and customers can easily check detailed product information through QR codes and make one-stop purchases from payment to delivery.

Governor Kim Soon-ho said, “We will do our best to make the market a place visited by more tourists by actively utilizing sales and distribution channels through an online and offline platform incorporating digital technology.”

Meanwhile, the county plans to improve the market environment by repairing old power lines, fire and sewage facilities, and renovating old arcades to revitalize the market, and create a lively market where people can enjoy and experience with performance halls, experience facilities, and rest areas.
