According to the county on the 22nd, the campaign, held twice on the 19th and 21st to coincide with market days, was organized to inform residents about the purpose and objectives of the Hometown Love Donation Program and to encourage participation in donations by actively promoting it to family and friends visiting their hometowns during the holiday.

About 30 people, including Governor Kim San, public officials, the head of the Muan-gun Nonghyup branch, and Nonghyup employees, participated in the campaign. They distributed leaflets to merchants and visitors and marched around the market holding promotional placards, attracting significant attention.
