Gangjin County has been running discount events by linking Meokgaebi with local festivals to support the tertiary industry, which accounts for a significant portion of the local industrial structure, as well as small business owners. The county explained that residents increased local consumption through these discounts, and the resulting sales benefited local small businesses.
In particular, providing discount coupons during local festivals led to increased app usage. Gangjin County cited the discount policy linked to festivals as the main reason for the significant increase in sales in the region, which has a population of about 32,000.
