Goheung County Pushes for 300,000-Won 'Livelihood Recovery Support Fund' for All Residents... Aims to Distribute Before Chuseok

Goheung County in the Jeonnam-Gwangju Integrated Special City is pursuing a plan to provide 300,000 won per person in 'Livelihood Recovery Support Funds' to all county residents. Anyone registered as a Goheung County resident on the resident registration is eligible, regardless of income. The county is currently working to secure the budget and complete administrative procedures with the goal of distributing the funds before the Chuseok holiday begins on September 24.
The support fund will likely be distributed in the form of 300,000-worth of 'Goheung Love Gift Certificates (paper form)' rather than cash. The county intends to ease the financial burden on residents ahead of the holiday while simultaneously injecting vitality into local commercial districts, including traditional markets and small businesses, through the circulation of local currency. The strategy is to create a virtuous cycle in which funds circulate within the local economy amid an economic slowdown and shrinking consumption.
Goheung County plans to finalize the detailed plan, including distribution criteria and application procedures, with specific information to be announced later through an official notice.
As local governments across the country have recently been pursuing livelihood support policies in the form of local currencies or gift certificates, Goheung County is also fully ramping up related procedures to distribute the funds before Chuseok.
