Gyeongbuk Development Corporation Holds Pre-Lunar New Year Shopping Event at Pohang Ocheon Market... Gyeongbuk Provincial Assembly Member Kim Jin-yeop Also Participates

Gyeongbuk Development Corporation (President Lee Jae-hyeok) visited Ocheon Market in Pohang City, Gyeongbuk, on the 20th ahead of the upcoming Lunar New Year holiday to hold a traditional market shopping event. About 40 employees of the corporation attended the event, and Kim Jin-yeop, Vice Chairman of the Construction and Firefighting Committee of the Gyeongbuk Provincial Council, also participated to listen to the difficulties of local traditional market merchants and communicate with them.

Since 2018, Gyeongbuk Development Corporation has consistently held such events every holiday to contribute, even in a small way, to revitalizing the local economy. A distinctive feature of the event is the use of pre-prepared eco-friendly shopping bags and traditional market gift certificates (Onnuri gift certificates). The shopping events are conducted by sequentially visiting traditional markets within the Gyeongbuk region.

We will continue to strive to become a trusted representative public corporation of Gyeongsangbuk-do through various activities that communicate with local residents.”
