The recipients of the Exemplary Local Taxpayer Award were selected through a review and resolution by the Local Tax Review Committee from among taxpayers who paid a certain amount or more in local taxes annually, with three top corporations and three individuals chosen, provided they had no record of local tax arrears or previous awards.

Since 2011, Gumi City has enacted the “Ordinance on the Support for Exemplary Taxpayers of Gumi City,” awarding plaques annually to outstanding local taxpayers. Award recipients are provided with benefits such as a three-year exemption from local tax audits and priority recommendations for small business development funds, thereby promoting a culture of faithful tax payment.

Jangho Kim, Mayor of Gumi, expressed his gratitude, stating, “I deeply thank the citizens and companies that have faithfully paid local taxes despite challenging economic conditions. Based on the valuable self-generated resources provided by taxpayers, we will improve residential conditions and bring about changes that citizens can truly feel.”
