'Seohong Potato' is the first agricultural product introduced following the business agreement signed in April between NS Home Shopping and Miryang City to expand the distribution, sales, and consumption promotion of agricultural food products.

Seohong Potato is a Miryang specialty cultivated throughout the winter and harvested only temporarily in May. Miryang has a long duration of sunlight and abundant sunshine, making it an ideal environment for potato cultivation. It is also characterized by low incidence of pests and diseases, allowing for eco-friendly cultivation.

NS Home Shopping explained, "Potatoes are a low-calorie, nutrient-rich crop containing potassium and protein," adding, "Seohong Potatoes produced in Miryang have high starch content and low reducing sugar levels, resulting in less browning during cooking and an excellent crispy texture unique to potatoes." They can be used in various dishes such as steamed potatoes, braised dishes, pancakes, stir-fries, and salads.

In the launch broadcast of 'Miryang Seohong Potato' on the day, 10kg of carefully selected 'Special' grade Seohong Potatoes will be sold for 31,900 KRW, and 5kg for 17,900 KRW.

Hyun Junhyun, Head of Future Strategy Office at NS Home Shopping, said, "Through the business agreement, we have not only expanded sales channels for Miryang farmers but also enabled customers to purchase excellent agricultural products at special prices," adding, "We ask for much support for our farmers and encourage everyone to buy the delicious and nutritious Seohong Potatoes at affordable prices."
