Recently, the possibility of combining local currency with Onnuri gift certificates has been gaining attention as a way to boost the economy of traditional markets and local commercial districts. Both of these systems have played a significant role in injecting vitality into the local economy.
In-depth discussions on this topic took place at the 16th Korea Literature Special Zone Forum held in Jangheung-gun, Jeollanam-do. Experts shared their opinions on how to integrate the respective strengths of local currency and Onnuri gift certificates.
