Police Increase Attention on Long-Term Missing Children at Everland on Children's Day

'Installing the Aijikim Height Chart'
Cultural Campaign to Find Missing Children

[Asia Economy Reporter Seongpil Cho] The National Police Agency announced on the 4th that it will hold the 'Child Protection Height Measurement Board' campaign on the 5th at Everland in Yongin, Gyeonggi Province, in collaboration with the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism and Samsung C&T Resort Division to celebrate the 100th Children's Day.

The 'Child Protection Height Measurement Board' is a height measurement board designed in the image of long-term missing children, used to check height before riding amusement rides. On Children's Day, five amusement rides at Everland will have the Child Protection Height Measurement Boards installed in front of them. The police explained, "This campaign is being conducted to prevent child disappearances and to raise public awareness about long-term missing children."

The campaign also involves an artificial intelligence content company and a webtoon artist. Diov Studio Co., Ltd., the creator of the virtual character 'Rui,' digitally restored photos of long-term missing children at the time of their disappearance to be suitable for producing the 'Child Protection Height Measurement Board.' Lee Daeyang, the artist of 'Doctor and Doctor Parenting Diary,' expressed guidance such as the 'pre-registration system including fingerprints' and the 'missing alert system' that appear through the information pattern (QR code) designed on the 'Child Protection Height Measurement Board' in a webtoon format.

Kim Kyotae, Director of the National Police Agency's Life Safety Bureau, said, "We will actively promote policies to prevent disappearances while ensuring that long-term missing children can return to their families as soon as possible." Choi Bogeun, spokesperson for the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism, stated, "We hope that through the cultural events prepared by the Ministry for Family Month in May, people can once again appreciate the importance of family and daily life," adding, "The Ministry will continue to expand the government's online and offline communication with the public through active public-private cooperation."
