[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Park Saeyan] The first payment of the 2021 Job-Seeking Activity Allowance Support Project (Dream Card), which provides job preparation expenses to unemployed youth in Gyeongnam Province, will be made starting from the 7th.


Gyeongsangnam-do and the Gyeongsangnam-do Economic Promotion Agency have confirmed 1,921 first-round Dream Card recipients.


Selected recipients will receive a total support amount of 2 million KRW, paid as 500,000 KRW per month for four months.


Recipients can apply for the Dream Card issuance non-face-to-face after completing the online preliminary training starting from the 2nd, where they will learn how to use the card and how to submit job-seeking activity reports.


The support funds will be provided from the 7th as points and Gyeongnam Love Gift Certificates (50,000 KRW). The points received can be used immediately on the application website or offline using the issued card.


However, the funds cannot be used in industries unrelated to job-seeking activities, and any usage exceeding 300,000 KRW must be substantiated.


Notably, this year, 10% of the total support amount of 2 million KRW, i.e., 200,000 KRW, will be paid in Gyeongnam Love Gift Certificates.



Additionally, if recipients succeed in employment or start a business while receiving the support, an additional employment success bonus of 500,000 KRW will be paid in Gyeongnam Love Gift Certificates.
