[Asia Economy Reporter Lim Cheol-young] The Seoul Fire & Disaster Headquarters and LG Twins signed a business agreement on the 29th to promote a culture of citizen safety.

This agreement was pursued to provide fire safety campaigns and safety experience education in an engaging way to citizens visiting Jamsil Baseball Stadium, based on the expertise of both organizations, and to raise social interest in safety.

The Seoul Fire & Disaster Headquarters and LG Twins plan to actively cooperate for △campaign activities to improve citizens' safety awareness and spread safety culture △operation of safety experience programs and events linked to sports games △promotion of the "Body-Perfect Firefighter Hope Sharing Calendar" project supporting burn patients.

The signing ceremony was held on the 29th afternoon at the first-floor conference room of Jamsil Baseball Stadium, the home stadium of LG Twins, attended by Choi Tae-young, head of the Seoul Fire & Disaster Headquarters, and Lee Gyu-hong, CEO of LG Sports.

Meanwhile, before the baseball game between LG Twins and Lotte Giants on the same day, various events such as a ceremonial first pitch by a 119 paramedic from Gangnam Fire Station in Seoul and the broadcasting of safety videos were held. The ceremonial first pitch was thrown by Fire Lieutenant Lee Song-nam, a paramedic from Gangnam Fire Station, who was specially promoted last September as the recipient of the "Life Protection Paramedic Award." He was recognized for his meritorious service in resuscitating 14 patients at risk of death due to cardiac or respiratory arrest through CPR and other emergency treatments.

Before the game and during the cleaning time (rest period after the bottom of the 5th inning), safety knowledge such as the installation of residential fire safety equipment and giving way to emergency vehicles was also conveyed to the audience via the electronic scoreboard.

Choi Tae-young, head of the Fire & Disaster Headquarters, said, “We will carry out various safety campaigns together with the prestigious team LG Twins for citizen safety,” and added, “We ask for the citizens’ interest and practice in safety.”
