Namyangju City to Actively Push Forward with '2024 Second Half Namyangju Jump Flea Market'

[Suwon Ilbo = Reporter Eom In-yong] Namyangju City will open the '2024 Second Half Jump Flea Market' at Sampaek Hangang Citizens' Park on the 7th.

The Namyangju Jump Flea Market is a community marketplace where citizens directly participate to sell and exchange recyclable secondhand items such as clothing, miscellaneous goods, and small home appliances. Following a successful opening during the first half of this year, the market will be held regularly every Saturday from the 7th through October 26th, excluding the Chuseok holiday period.

Operating hours are from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. on opening day (Saturday). Citizens interested in participating should check the opening schedule, location, and guidelines on the 'Citizen Participation Bulletin Board' on the Namyangju City Hall website, then apply during the application period. Participation is confirmed through a lottery draw.

On-site registration is also available on the day of the event, and general citizens who do not wish to participate in sales can attend without a separate application.

Sales participants can voluntarily donate 10% or more of their sales, and all donations will be used to support vulnerable groups within Namyangju City.

In particular, the city plans to hold regional markets at four locations to make it easier and more convenient for citizens from various areas to access: Maseok 5-Day Market in Hwado-eup (21st), Neul-eul Central Park in Hopyeong-dong (28th), Jingeon-Togyewon Administrative Welfare Center (October 5th), and Byeolnae Administrative Welfare Center (October 19th), providing diverse attractions and entertainment.
