Many South Koreans are selling the Chuseok gift sets they received in order to have more cash in hand to battle the rising cost of living.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
The popular gift sets include canned ham, seasoned tuna and red ginseng.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
As the four- day Chuseok or Mid Autumn Festival celebration drew to an end on Monday, secondhand e-commerce platforms are\u00a0 flooded with popular Chuseok gift sets for sale at a fraction of the original price, \u00a0according to Arirang News on Sept 12.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
South Korea’s secondhand e-commerce platform Joongonara says canned ham\u00a0 made up 30% of the goods put up for sale this festive season.<\/strong><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
The e-commerce platform says gift sets which can be bought for half of the original price are selling well.<\/strong><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Meanwhile, another secondhand e-commerce platform held a promotion for resale of gift sets at a reasonable price.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Reselling Chuseok gift sets on secondhand e-commerce platforms reflected the people’s pressing need for more cash to beat soaring prices.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
And there is little if no sign of\u00a0 the inflation coming down anytime soon.<\/div>\n
