[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters (Jeju) Reporter Hwang Jeongpil] The Jeju Provincial Police Agency announced on the 2nd that it will deploy more than 300 police officers to support security and safety activities to ensure the smooth progress of the College Scholastic Ability Test (CSAT) and strengthen youth guidance activities after the exam.


The deployed personnel include ▲100 for security and safety ▲96 for traffic management ▲60 for maintaining order ▲40 for youth protection.


This CSAT will be held at 17 test sites in Jeju Island (including 3 backup test sites), with a total of 6,542 examinees.


The police will support one patrol car per route (2 officers) for the transportation of question and answer sheets, and assign 2 officers to the question and answer storage facility on a 24-hour basis.


Additionally, they are doing their best to guard the storage facility through 112-linked patrols.


From early dawn on the exam day until the entry time, special traffic management will be implemented in cooperation with the autonomous police, and police officers will be stationed at the main gates of the test sites to strengthen order maintenance.


Furthermore, during the exam, patrol cars will be strategically placed around the test sites to maintain order and patrols will be intensified.


The police, education office, and others will focus on preventing delinquency and crimes by examinees who are relieved of tension after the CSAT and will strengthen guidance and crackdowns on youth harmful establishments to prevent the spread of COVID-19.


In particular, on the day of the CSAT, about 180 people including police, education office, local governments (autonomous police), and NGOs will patrol areas densely populated with youth harmful establishments throughout Jeju, targeting owners and employees of pubs, convenience stores, PC rooms, etc., to guide and crack down on major youth violations.


Also, considering the trend of COVID-19 spread, infection prevention activities will be carried out to encourage youth to refrain from entering multi-use facilities and to actively practice social distancing such as wearing masks, along with ‘pedestrian safety promotion’ activities to prevent traffic accidents.



A Jeju Police Agency official urged, “Since examinees are easily exposed to harmful environments and there is a high risk of COVID-19 infection as tension is released after the CSAT, please refrain from going out as much as possible and use this time to create precious memories with your family.”
