[Sejong=Asia Economy Reporter Moon Chaeseok] The government’s dining discount support event through delivery applications will end on the 4th of next month.

According to the Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs on the 28th, the number of event participations from the 24th of last month to the 20th of this month was 8.05 million. The amount refunded by credit card companies based on four payment transactions was 16.9 billion KRW.

The Ministry allocated 26 billion KRW out of the 66 billion KRW budget for the dining discount support event to non-face-to-face transactions. Participation is possible until the 2nd of next month, and payment records made before the 4th of the same month will be recognized.
