An official from the city stated, "Despite a short 14-day recruitment period from June to July last year, the event achieved strong results," and added, "This year, the registration period will be extended to maximize the economic impact on the local community by encouraging more businesses to participate."


The official also reported, "Last year, 14 establishments took part and a total of 2,365 coupons were used."


Choi Jae-hwa, the team leader at Boryeong City, explained, "Our goal is to expand the virtuous cycle of local economic revitalization, driven by tourist spending during the Boryeong Mud Festival, throughout the entire city of Boryeong. We are also aiming to establish a sustainable consumption structure through win-win cooperation with participating businesses."



Meanwhile, selected businesses must honor the discounts they indicated in their applications for one month, from July 24 to August 20, and provide voluntary services, as no separate compensation will be offered.
