Participants included the Gimhae City Hygiene Division, Gimhae City Public Health Center Epidemiological Investigation Team, and Gyeongsangnam-do officials, focusing on each agency's on-site duties and response procedures.

A city official said, “This was an opportunity to enhance on-site food poisoning response capabilities,” adding, “We will continue to thoroughly manage food safety to create a safe dining environment where citizens can feel secure.”
