From February 5 to April 17 this year, Gunsan City invited existing gift suppliers to submit additional items. In this recruitment, the number of items each supplier could apply for was increased from one to a maximum of three, lowering the barrier for local businesses to participate.

A total of 13 companies submitted 17 items, and after evaluating factors such as whether the products were produced or manufactured in the Gunsan area, the content of raw materials, distribution channels, overlap with existing gifts, and suitability as daily-use gifts, 15 items were finally selected.

For agricultural, marine, and livestock products and processed goods, the selected items include: ▲Eoseongcho Korean Beef Set and Pork Ribs (Eoseongcho Hoihyeon Handon) ▲Seasoned Crab (Gungjeon Kkotgejang) ▲Cleaned Webfoot Octopus (Gunsan Fisheries Cooperative) ▲Golden Yellow Croaker Set (Ariul Fisheries) ▲Gopchang Traditional Laver (Jinpo Sanghoe).

Newly added daily-use and unique items include: ▲Body Care Set (Harom) ▲Wooden Mechanical Pencil and Ballpoint Pen Set (Jinpo Printing) ▲Strawberry Seedlings and Cherry Tomatoes (Best Berry). These products, such as stationery and horticultural seedlings, are rarely seen among local return gifts, making the selection process more enjoyable for donors.

Choi Dongwi, Head of Public Relations at Gunsan City, stated, "We have discovered unique items that can be usefully employed by donors in their daily lives." He added, "We will continue to reflect donor needs to ensure that the Hometown Love Donation program contributes to the income of local small business owners and revitalizes the regional economy."
