Bucheon City in Gyeonggi Province will hold the "2025 Second Half Gyeonggi Big Sale" from November 22 to November 30 at 30 traditional markets and local commercial districts in the area.


This event, organized by the Gyeonggi-do Market Commercial District Promotion Agency, aims to revitalize traditional markets and local commercial districts, boost local consumption, support small business owners, and stimulate the regional economy. During the event, customers who make payments using the local currency, Bucheon Pay, at participating locations will receive an automatic cashback of up to 20% of their purchase amount.


In particular, unlike the first half of the year, this event will not operate on-site cashback exchange booths. Instead, instant cashback will be provided through local currency payments only, making the process much simpler. By eliminating the previous receipt verification process and reducing waiting congestion, the event is expected to significantly improve convenience for citizens.


Additionally, the city will collaborate with the Bucheon Small Business Association to include the Pinocchio Square area near Bucheon Station-an area that has recently faced difficulties due to indiscriminate live streaming by some YouTubers-among the participating districts, thereby helping to protect and revitalize the local commercial area.


Details on participating districts and cashback criteria can be found on the official websites of Bucheon City and the Gyeonggi-do Market Commercial District Promotion Agency.



A Bucheon City official stated, "This second half Big Sale is a citizen-oriented consumption promotion event where people can enjoy benefits just by making payments, without any complicated procedures," adding, "We hope it will inject real vitality into the local commercial districts and help establish a sustainable regional economy where citizens and small business owners grow together."
