Up to 30% Refund on Same-Day Domestic Seafood Purchases at Yeongdeungpo Traditional Market Until June 12
12 Stores Participating... Includes Domestic Seafood, Marine Products, and Processed Foods like Jeotgal

Yeongdeungpo-gu (District Mayor Choi Ho-kwon) announced that from June 1 to June 12, a Onnuri Gift Certificate refund event will be held at the ‘Yeongdeungpo Traditional Market’.

The Onnuri Gift Certificate refund event is organized by the Ministry of Oceans and Fisheries to stabilize seafood prices and revitalize consumption in traditional markets. It provides refunds in Onnuri Gift Certificates for a portion of the purchase amount to buyers of domestic seafood.

A total of 62 markets across 16 local governments nationwide are participating in this event, including 7 markets in Seoul, among which is the Yeongdeungpo Traditional Market.

The event period is divided into two sessions: the first session runs from June 1 to 7, and the second session from June 8 to 12. Eligible items for refunds include domestic seafood, marine products, salted seafood, and processed foods containing at least 70% domestic ingredients.

The refund amount is up to 30% of the daily purchase amount of domestic seafood. For purchases between 34,000 KRW and less than 67,000 KRW, a 10,000 KRW refund is given; for purchases of 67,000 KRW or more, a 20,000 KRW refund is provided. Each person can receive up to 20,000 KRW per session, totaling up to 40,000 KRW worth of Onnuri Gift Certificates.

A total of 12 stores within the Yeongdeungpo Traditional Market are participating in the event and are easily identifiable by separate markings.

Consumers who purchase domestic seafood at these stores should bring their receipt and ID to the refund booth set up within the market (operating from 9:30 AM to 5:30 PM). However, simplified receipts are not eligible for refunds, and overlapping discounts with seafood-specific Zero Pay mobile gift certificates are not allowed. For further details, inquiries can be made to the District Office’s Regional Economy Division or the Yeongdeungpo Traditional Market.

Additionally, the district operates support projects to revitalize traditional markets, including installing fire alarm facilities and maintaining old electrical wiring in individual stores within the market.

Choi Ho-kwon, Mayor of Yeongdeungpo-gu, stated, “We hope this event will be a great opportunity to revitalize traditional markets. We will cooperate with the merchants’ association to ensure thorough management so that consumers do not experience inconvenience such as fraudulent refunds caused by the sale of imported products.”
