Yeonggwang-gun, Jeollanam-do (Governor Kang Jong-man) announced on the 19th that it has significantly expanded the budget for the "Support Project for Installing Standing Tables," a project aimed at improving the dining-out environment.

Since 2019 until the first half of this year, the county has supported the replacement of tables in 148 restaurants, but due to insufficient funds, it could not fully meet the demands of business owners. Therefore, this year, it has secured a total budget of 70 million KRW to expand support.

Under this project, each business can receive up to 2 million KRW to purchase standing tables, and the project will continue to be promoted in the second half of the year.

Governor Kang Jong-man said, "This project, for which we have devoted great effort to secure the budget, aims to improve the dining culture for residents and users, and we expect many restaurant owners to show interest and participate." He added, "We will continue to contribute to the development of the county's dining culture through ongoing support."
