Bus Ride Coupon Worth 1,000 KRW Provided for Purchases Over 10,000 KRW at Traditional Markets in Gangseo-gu

Gangseo-gu Partners with Four Traditional Markets and Village Bus Companies to Revitalize Markets... Coupons Issued Until September, Usable Until December

[Asia Economy Reporter Park Jong-il] Lee ○ Young (female, 33, resident of Hwagok-dong) said with a bright smile, "The traditional market is a bit far from my home, but since the goods are cheap and good, I often go there. Yesterday, I went to Hwagokbon-dong Market and bought some fruits and side dishes, and they gave me a bus ticket. Thanks to that, I came home comfortably. I got to ride the bus for free, so I think I will visit the traditional market more often from now on."

Seoul Gangseo-gu (District Mayor Noh Hyun-song) traditional markets are being reborn as premium traditional markets with convenient access.

The district announced that it has signed a tripartite business agreement with traditional markets and village bus transportation companies to promote the 'Traditional Market Village Bus Ride Support Project.'

This project provides one free village bus ride coupon to customers who purchase goods worth 10,000 won or more at traditional markets.

The purpose is to encourage more residents to visit traditional markets by providing transportation convenience, revitalizing traditional markets that have been stagnant due to COVID-19, and contributing to increased sales for market merchants.

The traditional markets participating in the project are Songhwa Mural Market, Kkachisan Market, Hwagokbon-dong Market, and Bangsin Traditional Market, a total of four locations, and village bus ride coupons for buses passing through the respective markets are provided upon purchase.

In the case of Songhwa Mural Market, after purchasing goods, customers can submit their receipts at the event hall located at the intersection within the market to receive village bus ride coupons for Gangseo routes 05 and 06.

Kkachisan Market provides coupons for Gangseo route 03, Hwagokbon-dong Market for Gangseo route 01, and Bangsin Traditional Market for Gangseo route 07 village buses.

The ride coupons are issued and distributed by each traditional market merchant association until September, and the coupons received can be used until December.

A district official said, "We are working in various ways with the market merchant associations to improve the perception that traditional markets are inconvenient. We hope that through this project, more residents will comfortably use traditional markets."
