[Gokseong=Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Cha Jong-sun] Jeonnam Gokseong-gun (Governor Lee Sang-cheol) announced that it will operate the 'Seol Holiday Gokseong-gun Direct Transaction Market' in Gwanak-gu, Seoul from the 17th to the 18th.
The Gokseong-gun Direct Transaction Market will be held at the Euncheon Bridge Samgeori Fountain Park located at 317 Bongseon-ro, Gwanak-gu, Seoul. It will operate from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. during the event period.
This Gokseong-gun Seol Holiday Direct Transaction Market was prepared through prior consultation with the Gokseong-gun Jaegyeong Hyangwoohoe to ensure the successful hosting of the market. Eleven farms will sell over 100 excellent agricultural specialty products directly produced by them, serving as a place to promote and publicize Gokseong-gun.
The items for sale include organic Baeksemi rice, Samgi black glutinous corn, taro, dried persimmons, traditional bugak (fried vegetable chips), wild tea, soybean paste, cheonggukjang (fermented soybean paste), Baeksemi cup nurungji (scorched rice), and wild honey. The products are composed of excellent agricultural specialties and Seol holiday ritual items that well represent the characteristics of Gokseong-gun and differentiate it from other regions.
Visitors to the direct transaction market will be given garaetteok (cylindrical rice cakes). Through the garaetteok giveaway event, the plan is to increase the income of participating farms and maximize the promotion of agricultural specialty products.
The person in charge of the Gokseong-gun Direct Transaction Market said, "We will continue to promote planned exhibitions and special exhibitions hosted by Gokseong-gun so that local producers can establish a stronger income base. In addition, we will do our best to secure stable online and offline sales channels for farms by promoting direct transaction markets in connection with the Gokseong-gun Hyangwoohoe."
