[Asia Economy Reporter Lee Jung-yoon] Kim Sonyeon, Chief of the Songpa Police Station in Seoul, participated in the 'Children's Traffic Safety Relay Challenge' on the 3rd.

This campaign began in December last year to build national consensus on practicing traffic safety in school zones. The children's traffic safety slogan, "Stop at 1! Look both ways at 2! Wait for 3 seconds! Prevent with 4 high alerts!" is posted on social networking services (SNS), and the next participant is nominated in turn.

Kim Seo-yeop, CEO of Korea Sports Industry Development, nominated Chief Kim to join the campaign. Kim then nominated the next participants: Oh Kwang-su, Director of Songpa Post Office; Jeon Seung-bae, Director of Jamsil Tax Office; and Ko Seok, CEO of the Korea Children's Safety Foundation.

On the day, Chief Kim also conducted a traffic safety campaign at Munjeong Elementary School in Songpa-gu to prevent traffic accidents in school zones and ensure safe commutes for elementary students. The Songpa Police Station distributed 200 antibacterial wet wipes and fluorescent backpack safety covers to lower-grade students, and plans to protect citizens from traffic accidents and prevent children's traffic accidents through promotional activities such as the Safe Speed 5030 campaign targeting parents and drivers.
