[Asia Economy Reporter Lim Chunhan] Gmarket announced on the 27th that it will absorb the core functions of its family site G9 and significantly strengthen its overseas direct purchase capabilities. G9 will terminate its service as of December 27.

Gmarket will enhance overseas direct purchase content on its own channels. A shortcut service to overseas direct purchase has been added to the central area of the mobile and PC version home screens to improve customer accessibility. The regularly scheduled "Seonneomneun Direct Purchase" promotions will be held monthly, and trendy direct purchase products will also be introduced.

A company-wide discount event, the Overseas Direct Purchase Big Sale, will also be newly established. It will take place from the 21st to the 30th of the following month, right after the Big Smile Day event, featuring exclusive discount coupons for overseas direct purchases, live broadcasts focused on overseas direct purchase products, and luxury overseas brand prize events.

A Gmarket official said, "This is part of a business structure reorganization to prevent the dispersion of overseas direct purchase customers and to improve site operation efficiency," adding, "We will continue to introduce more advanced overseas direct purchase content."
