[Asia Economy Reporter Moon Chaeseok] Korea Gas Safety Corporation announced on the 8th that it has launched the 'Gas Self-Inspection Relay Campaign,' allowing users to directly check the gas status in their homes.

Due to the implementation of social distancing measures amid the novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19), it has become difficult for gas suppliers and operators to conduct gas safety inspections.

In response, the Gas Safety Corporation started the campaign on the 24th of last month to encourage the prevention of gas accidents at home through self-inspection. The campaign will continue until the end of December. It is being promoted in connection with the Ministry of the Interior and Safety's 'Let's Make Korea Safe Campaign.'

On the 27th of last month, actor Kim Eungsoo, the gas safety advertisement model, participated in the relay campaign for the first time. Since then, fellow actors, citizens, and organizations have been nominating the next participants, directly engaging in checking gas appliances at home.

The campaign videos can be viewed on the Korea Gas Safety Corporation's YouTube channel.
