[Sejong=Asia Economy Reporter Kim Hyunjung] The National Tax Service has selected and announced 30 taxpayers who have dedicated themselves to preventing the spread of COVID-19 and revitalizing the economy.

On the 14th, the National Tax Service announced that it installed the 'Beautiful Taxpayer Promotion Hall' on the first floor of the Tax Museum at the Sejong Government Complex and held an unveiling ceremony. The Beautiful Taxpayer system was first implemented in July 2011 to create a social consensus on sincere tax payment and sharing. It is a system that rewards hidden contributors in our society who serve as role models by practicing social contribution through donations and volunteering, as well as creating jobs and realizing social values along with sincere tax payment.

This year, a total of 30 taxpayers were actively selected, including those who continuously practiced donations and volunteering to support marginalized and vulnerable groups, taxpayers who contributed to community development through hiring local residents or people with disabilities, and those who dedicated themselves to preventing the spread of COVID-19 in local communities and revitalizing the economy by supporting quarantine activities to overcome the disaster situation. The selected taxpayers consist of 12 individual business owners, 13 corporate business owners, and 5 wage earners. Among them are Lee Okja, CEO of Jangdari Garlic Yakseon, known as the donation angel and 'Kidari Ajumma' from Danyang, Chungbuk; Park Geunyoung, CEO of La Henne Korea, who continuously supported children with disabilities and vulnerable groups; and Kim Eungyu, director of Yeomsan Jeil Clinic, who practiced coexistence with the local community through steady medical volunteering.

Beautiful taxpayers receive preferential tax benefits such as tax audit deferral and exemption from tax payment guarantees, as well as social preferential benefits including airport immigration priority, railway fare discounts, and free use of public and national park parking lots. Starting this year, additional benefits such as trade insurance premium discounts, preferential subscription limits, and credit guarantee fund guarantee fee rate discounts are also provided.
