Customers who wish to participate can purchase the The Hyundai Plogging with Green Friends kit through Hyundai Department Store's official online mall, The Hyundai.com, by July 5th. The kit includes a reusable bag, gloves, tongs, biodegradable plastic bags, two National Geographic T-shirts, and an eco-friendly wooden medal, all of which can be used during plogging.

The kit is priced at 30,000 KRW and is limited to 2,000 units. All proceeds from sales will be donated to Animal Rights Action Kara to be used for purchasing medical equipment necessary for treating abandoned animals. The kits will be shipped sequentially starting from July 7th, and customers who receive the kits can voluntarily participate in plogging with their pets.

Various events will be held for plogging participants. Hyundai Department Store Group’s integrated membership H Point members who take photos of themselves plogging and upload them on their personal Instagram accounts with the required hashtags, then visit the gift desk at any of Hyundai Department Store’s 16 nationwide stores, will receive a 5,000 KRW Hyundai Department Store gift certificate. Among H Point members who upload posts, 50 will be selected by lottery to receive 50,000 H Points.

A Hyundai Department Store official said, "This year’s event features special goods in collaboration with The Walt Disney Company," adding, "We plan to continuously introduce ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) related content that creates social value together with customers by linking social interests such as eco-friendliness and abandoned dogs, fostering a virtuous cycle with society."
