Busan's local currency Dongbaekjeon exceeds 2 million people in 7 years... special event

Busan City announced on the 11th that the number of Dongbaekjeon subscribers has exceeded 2 million.

The city reported that the number of Dongbaekjeon members increased from 1.89 million at the end of August to over 2 million at the beginning of this month, thanks to the expansion of Dongbaekjeon benefits in accordance with the 100-day emergency measure for public livelihood.

The city believes that raising the cashback rate and providing Dongbaekjeon energy vouchers have increased citizen interest and participation.

A special event will be held to commemorate Dongbaekjeon reaching 2 million members for the first time in 7 years.

This month, through a drawing among Dongbaekjeon paying members, 2 million won will be paid to 7 first place winners, 50,000 won to 500 second place winners, 30,000 won to 1,000 third place winners, and 10,000 won to 3,000 fourth place winners.

Busan City is also pursuing the expansion of Dongbaekjeon QR franchises to reduce the burden of payment fees on small business owners.

Mayor Jeon Jae-soo said, "Dongbaekjeon's membership exceeding 2 million is a significant achievement created by the active participation and support of citizens and small business owners."
