The National Character Representative Selection is a customer-participation online and offline character festival introduced last year. An online vote will be held to select 10 representatives among the participating characters. Voting can be done through the official applications (apps) of Shinsegae Simon, Jelly Crew, and Shinhan Card. The ranking will be determined by combining the number of votes from each channel and the likes and comments on the participating artists' social media (SNS) channels. The voting results are scheduled to be announced on the 25th of this month.

The top 10 characters will go through various commercialization processes such as stationery, living goods, and accessories, and will be exhibited and sold at online and offline store exhibitions. The top 4 characters will be planned for release as limited edition cards by Shinhan Card using intellectual property (IP).

A Shinsegae Simon official said, "We are striving to diversify customer experiences through character marketing that can be friendly to all age groups," and added, "We plan to continuously introduce experiential content that provides unique fun and emotion."
