The Saeul Nuclear Power Headquarters of Korea Hydro & Nuclear Power has formed a sisterhood relationship with the Namchang Onggi Jonggi Traditional Market Merchants Association and regularly holds shopping events, delivering purchased goods to welfare facilities within Ulju County.

Mayor Kim Dukyum stated, "Efforts are needed to promote purchases at traditional markets, which are facing difficulties due to changes in the distribution environment, in order to create a virtuous cycle for the local economy. I ask public institutions and local businesses to take the lead in purchasing local gift certificates and actively using traditional markets."
