Hong Nampyo, Changwon Special City Mayor, Supports Local Economic Vitality Ahead of Lunar New Year Holiday.

To commemorate the issuance of the first paper-type Nubijeon in 2025, he visited major banks in the city, directly communicating with citizens and delivering messages of encouragement. This was an occasion to encourage citizens to participate in efforts to revitalize the local economy.

The paper-type Nubijeon is sold only during the Lunar New Year and Chuseok holidays to support local businesses facing difficult conditions. The paper gift certificates, which can be used like cash, play a significant role in promoting consumption by allowing local residents to use local currency in more diverse ways. Meanwhile, the discount rate is 7%, and individuals can purchase up to a limit of 200,000 won.

Mayor Hong encouraged continuous participation by telling citizens visiting the banks, “Nubijeon can only be used at stores within the region, so it provides real support to the local business district,” and “Small participation from citizens can come together to create a big change called local economic revitalization.”

Meanwhile, Changwon Special City plans to continue various promotional activities to increase the utilization of Nubijeon and supply paper-type gift certificates so that citizens can easily access them. Through this, the city aims to lead economic revitalization and sustainable development of the local business district.
