Bucheon Sinheung Market has achieved a valuable feat by winning the Excellence Award in the "Show Off Our Market" category at the "2026 National Excellent Market Fair" held in Gongju City, South Chungcheong Province.

"Show Off Our Market" is a program where traditional markets from across the country showcase the unique characteristics and charms of their respective markets through stage performances. Representing the traditional markets of Bucheon City, Sinheung Market participated on October 11, the final day of the fair, at the Art Center Goma in Gongju, South Chungcheong Province.

The Sinheung Market Janggu (traditional Korean hourglass drum) club gained enthusiastic responses from the audience with the skills its merchants have steadily polished. They received high praise for showcasing merchant unity and market vitality nationwide. Such club activities not only increase communication and cooperation among merchants and add energy to the market, but also inform customers of the vibrancy of Bucheon's traditional markets, helping to drive visitor traffic.

Behind this achievement was the continuous support of the Bucheon Industry Promotion Agency. The agency has provided multi-faceted support for the smooth operation of the Sinheung Market club, and this year, it also supported their participation in the fair, leading to even better results.

Shin Dong-hak, President of the Bucheon Industry Promotion Agency, stated, "This award is all the more meaningful because it was an achievement prepared and participated in directly by the merchants. We feel a sense of pride and fulfillment as the agency's support has led to such a great outcome."
