[Asia Economy Reporter La Young-cheol] The Northern Gyeonggi Provincial Police Agency produced and distributed a promotional video to prevent child disappearances in observance of "Missing Children's Day (5.25)".

The Northern Gyeonggi Provincial Police Agency stated on the 23rd, "Approximately 31,000 children under the age of 18 are pre-registered annually," and added, "To promote the pre-registration system, we created a missing prevention promotional video featuring a friendly character (Todak Todak Komo)."

The promotional video was made as an animation set to music to make it easy for children and parents, the main targets of pre-registration, to understand.

The video includes information on the pre-registration system and how to use it, guidelines on missing prevention rules that children should follow if they get lost, and also promotes the "Safe Dream App," which allows non-face-to-face pre-registration via mobile phone filming.

The police plan to disseminate the video to preschool children and parents through the Gyeonggi Provincial Office, the Office of Education, and the Komo YouTube channel.

Meanwhile, "Missing Children's Day" was declared as "World Missing Children's Day" in 1983, triggered by the abduction and murder of a child (Ethan Patz) that occurred in New York, USA, on May 25, 1979. South Korea established "Missing Children's Day (5.25)" in 2007.
