KT and Goyang City Operate 40,000 Lines of 'Goyang Ansim Call' for Entry with a Single Phone Call

Signing of Business Agreement on the 20th

[Asia Economy Reporter Cha Min-young] KT and Goyang City announced on the 20th that they have signed a business agreement to operate the ‘Goyang Safe Call Entry Management System,’ which allows simple entry registration with just one phone call, with 40,000 lines. The 40,000 lines represent the largest scale among local governments.

According to this business agreement, KT and Goyang City will build the infrastructure and platform to operate a total of 40,000 lines, including an additional 20,000 lines added to the existing 20,000 Safe Call lines.

Goyang City introduced and has been operating the ‘Safe Call’ service last September, the first among local governments, which replaces the creation of entry logs by phone when visiting multi-use facilities such as restaurants. After the entry log creation became mandatory due to COVID-19, Goyang City decided to collaborate with KT, which has 080 phone lines, to expand Safe Call to all multi-use facilities.

Lee Jae-jun, Mayor of Goyang City, said, “Goyang City played a leading role in COVID-19 quarantine policies by spreading the Safe Call, first introduced in Goyang City, nationwide and having it adopted as one of the government’s entry registration methods. Going forward, Goyang City will continue to lead government policies with innovative policies like Safe Call in the era of the Fourth Industrial Revolution.”

Yoo Chang-gyu, Head of Gangbuk and Gangwon Corporate Customer Headquarters, said, “KT will do its best to ensure stable operation so that the Safe Call service, which can accurately verify entry times and visitors, can support Goyang City’s COVID-19 quarantine efforts.”

Meanwhile, KT plans to cooperate so that Goyang City can provide various ICT-based services for its citizens. KT and Goyang City are already jointly operating the shared bicycle ‘Tajo (TAZO)’ in addition to Safe Call.
