[Asia Economy Reporter Jongil Park] Dongdaemun-gu (Mayor You Deok-yeol) is launching a focused crackdown on illegal activities in parks to foster a proper park usage culture.

This measure comes in response to some residents recently engaging in illegal activities such as cooking using gas inside parks.

To this end, the district will conduct a "Notice of Crackdown on Illegal Activities in Parks" from the 11th to the 17th.

From the 18th to the 31st, on-site crackdowns will be carried out directly. The "Park Illegal Activities Crackdown Team," composed of 15 staff members divided into four groups, will focus on four neighborhood parks frequently used by residents and clubs in the area (Baebongsan, Dapsimni, Hongneung, and Jangan).

The main crackdown items include △ possession and carrying of fire-related equipment in parks △ cooking activities, etc. Upon the first detection of illegal activity, fire-related equipment will be confiscated and a confirmation acknowledging the illegal act will be obtained. Upon the second detection, a fine of 100,000 KRW will be imposed.

The district expects this focused crackdown to raise awareness among park users about illegal activities and contribute to establishing a proper park usage culture and order in the community.

You Deok-yeol, Mayor of Dongdaemun-gu, stated, "Since parks are used by many people, I ask everyone to pay a little more attention so that all can enjoy them pleasantly and comfortably."
