Senate Resolution No. 69 recognizes Taek and Nancy Kim for their nearly three decades of ownership of the Pulga de Alamo, a prominent flea market in the Rio Grande Valley. Since purchasing the market in 1996, the Kims have expanded it from 28 acres to over 70 acres, accommodating approximately 1,500 vendors and creating hundreds of jobs. The market has also evolved into a cultural hub, featuring a unique dance hall known as El Domo, which attracts visitors and has gained significant social media attention.

The resolution highlights the Kims' backgrounds, noting Mr. Kim's immigrant roots from South Korea and Mrs. Kim's Mexican American heritage, both of which have influenced their vision for the market. Their dedication and hard work have transformed the Pulga de Alamo into a celebrated center for commerce and culture in the region. The Texas Senate extends its congratulations and best wishes to the Kims for their achievements and continued success.
