How would you describe the use of "Happy Money" to someone who might be a bit slow in the head or lack the knowledge of the Korean language to understand the website above? + Show Spoiler +

Amazing thanks for the sub team. I LOVE this series, actually go a little teary eyed when he went back home.
He'll begin the military in 2 days I just hope he comes back in some way 'cos he is the reason for my love of SC:BW.
Nal-Ra, Thank you for everything....

Damn, I didn't realize how quickly some of the screen subs faded when I was going through the first half of the show. Sorry if my subs are hard to read - I'll go through it again next time and lengthen subs I think are too short. D:

It seemed fine, even for someone who re-reads the subs.

I don't read Korean, but I suspect that happy money is something between a gift card and a local currency initiative. The former is the obvious "money-equivalent but only at one store", while the latter is something that's been tried in some towns in the US and I think around the world in an effort to keep commerce a bit more local - it has no value outside of the town, and therefore encourages people to spend with local businesses.

Some companies see a great model here - they can band together to offer a "currency" that is much more useful and flexible than single-store gift cards, but still gets users locked-in to their little club of stores. It could theoretically help small stores band together act as a unit to compete better with large chains, but in practice I suspect that it's more useful as a tool for established businesses to apply just a bit more pressure on little guys, :-/
(This is similar to "points" systems offered on everything from rewards credit cards to shoppers' clubs . . . you get rewards that are money-like but have limited scope of applicability [and if possible, the offering company would like to have them expire and make them non-transferable].)

Also, THANKS GUYS.

The only sub I had to pause was Kang Min's message to the fans he didn't get a chance to say near the beginning, and that wasn't your fault as it barely flashed on the screen for half a second.
