[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Yeo Jong-gu] DGB Daegu Bank celebrated its 55th anniversary by hosting the ‘DGB Restore: UPCYCLE’ event, which included a secondhand goods sharing event and a booth experience utilizing recycled materials.

The event, held on the 28th at the open plaza of DGB Daegu Bank’s headquarters in Suseong-dong, was organized to utilize the open plaza as a space for local residents in celebration of DGB Daegu Bank’s 55th anniversary.

At the open plaza, which hosts the weekly Wednesday cultural performance ‘DGB 휴心 Hour’ to engage customers in cultural exchange, the ‘DGB Restore: UPCYCLE’ event was held last weekend as an interactive communication event involving local residents, providing time for exchange with customers.

The first flea market event, emphasizing ‘eco-friendliness,’ featured various setups that stood out, including a ‘Restore’ corner for secondhand trading where any citizen could participate in ‘Anabada’ (a Korean term for trading used goods), as well as one-day classes for experiences using recycled materials.

Additionally, a wide range of items such as fashion goods including clothes, bags, and shoes, camping equipment, toys for infants and children, stationery, and kitchenware were sold at affordable prices, attracting many customers and creating a great turnout.

DGB Daegu Bank plans to sell items donated free of charge by employees and citizens separately and donate all proceeds.

A Daegu Bank official stated, “Through various cultural events at the open plaza, DGB Daegu Bank aims to engage with local residents and will continue to hold various socially meaningful events to carry out ESG activities together with citizens.”
