Changwon Special City in Gyeongnam, in collaboration with the Masan Fish Market Merchants Association, will hold a domestic seafood Onnuri gift certificate refund event for a total of 4 days from the 3rd to the 6th, coinciding with the summer vacation season.


This event was organized to promote the safety of our seafood during the summer vacation season and to revitalize consumer visits to traditional markets, thereby encouraging the consumption of excellent domestic seafood. The event will proceed by refunding up to 30% of the purchase amount (with a limit of 20,000 KRW per person) in Onnuri gift certificates when purchasing domestic seafood.

The refund amounts based on purchase amounts are as follows: ▲ 20,000 KRW for purchases of 67,000 KRW or more ▲ 10,000 KRW for purchases between 34,000 KRW and less than 67,000 KRW. However, refunds are limited to the purchase amount of domestic seafood only, and amounts spent at general restaurants such as sashimi restaurants are excluded from the event.


The Masan Fish Market, selected as a participating market for the refund event, successfully completed the previous refund events (Lunar New Year, Summer 2023) with high consumer response. The total budget allocated for this event is 170 million KRW, making it the largest scale event to date.


Additionally, Changwon City plans to form an on-site inspection team to conduct surprise inspections to manage unfair refund situations such as the sale of imported products and duplicate support, ensuring the event is conducted fairly.



Kim Jongpil, Director of the Marine Port and Fisheries Bureau, said, “We hope you have an enjoyable summer vacation with our seafood,” and added, “We sincerely hope many people use safe domestic seafood.”
