Kim Hye-kyeong Encourages the Use of Consumption Coupons at Incheon Traditional Market for Recovery of Livelihoods
Kim Hye-kyeong, the wife of President Lee Jae-myung, visited the Gye-yang Mountain Traditional Market in Gyeonggi Province on the 25th and participated in the activation of consumption by using consumption coupons directly.
This visit is interpreted as a move to encourage the use of consumption coupons that the government began distributing on the 21st.

During her visit, Kim greeted local residents, asking, "Did you receive your consumption coupons?"
Kim stated, "I came here to use my consumption coupons," to which residents responded to her question about whether they had used the coupons by saying, "I had samgyetang," and "I bought rice cakes."
Traditional Market Merchants Welcome Increased Sales Thanks to Consumption Coupons
On this day, Kim Hye-kyeong purchased various products such as corn, twisted doughnuts, side dishes, fruits, rice cakes, belts, and slippers using the consumption coupons from a shopping basket she had prepared in advance.
While shopping, she asked the merchants, "Are many people coming to use their consumption coupons?" The merchants responded positively, saying, "It's very good," and "Sales have increased a lot."

Merchants and residents she met on-site also requested to take photos and get her signature. When one merchant asked for her signature, Kim humbly replied, "You should be getting the president's signature."
Accompanying her on this market visit was Yoon Gi-cheon, the second secretary of the presidential office. President Lee Jae-myung appointed Yoon as the second secretary to assist Kim Hye-kyeong on the 21st.
Kim has been actively participating in official engagements recently.
Just a day earlier, on the 24th, she visited the flood-affected area in Gapyeong County, Gyeonggi Province, which suffered significant damage from heavy rainfall, personally cleaning furniture soaked in muddy water while comforting the residents affected by the disaster.
