Coupang aims to cultivate a workplace environment filled with gratitude and high morale. In addition to the lottery, employees are receiving "anti-heat" items like cooling towels and energy jelly drinks to help them cope with the summer weather. Traditional rice dumplings are also being distributed to add to the festive spirit.
