SangSang Madang Nonsan will host the 2025 Nolbit Market on May 10 to help local
micro-enterprises find new channels and to promote community interaction among
residents.
Welcoming
its seventh year, the Nolbit Market has grown into a leading festival in Nonsan
since its launch in 2018, accumulating 92 local small businesses as
participants and more than 3,500 visitors to date.
This
year’s event will feature 14 vendors, ranging from social enterprises to
village businesses and cooperatives. Through the flea market, the participants
will offer a variety of experiential events, including the sale of food and
beverages made with local agricultural products.
To
celebrate Family Month, the market will also present performances suitable for
all ages, alongside participatory programs such as the SangSang Madang 20th
Anniversary Drawing Contest.
A
KT&G SangSang Madang representative stated, “We hope the Nolbit Market
becomes a valuable opportunity for local small businesses to showcase their
products and a vibrant space for residents to connect. We will continue to
operate a wide range of cultural and artistic programs to ensure that KT&G
SangSang Madang Nonsan grows in harmony with the local community.”
