[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Park Jin-hyung] “During the vacation season, don’t buy expensive camping gear; rent them cheaply at the Nam-gu Goods Sharing Center in Gwangju Metropolitan City.”


On the 3rd, Nam-gu, Gwangju Metropolitan City announced, “To help local residents have an economical vacation during the vacation season, we have additionally purchased tents and outdoor circulators, which are frequently used in summer, and are providing rental services.”


Following the recent lifting of COVID-19 social distancing measures, travel demand has increased, causing accommodation fees and prices to soar. As a result, more people are giving up vacations due to high household expenses. To enable economical vacations through shared goods, Nam-gu purchased a large number of camping supplies.


The new items recently added to the Nam-gu Goods Sharing Center include two 4-person tents, three camping circulators, four camping mats, three 7-8 person-sized Koppels, three camping iron BBQ pans, four Pollux camping lanterns, four fire shields, and four children's chairs.


Residents who want to go on vacation outdoors to forests, valleys, or the sea instead of expensive accommodations like hotels can enjoy an economical vacation at a low cost by using the Nam-gu Goods Sharing Center.


This place is fully equipped with camping gear as well as screens and beam projectors for watching movies outdoors, Bluetooth speakers, outdoor lighting, iceboxes, and camping water containers to hold ice, allowing for cozy outdoor time.


A representative from the Nam-gu Goods Sharing Center said, “In times like these when prices are rising sharply, it’s not easy to go on vacation with a light heart. As an alternative, you can use the Goods Sharing Center, and we hope families can spend healing time together without burden through shared goods rental.”


Meanwhile, the Nam-gu Goods Sharing Center is located on the first floor of the annex building of the Nam-gu Office and has been visited by many residents since it opened in March last year.



Currently, it rents out 36 types of camping gear, 14 types of daily necessities, and 12 types of household tools, with rental fees set at less than 2% of the item’s value, making it very affordable.
