Dongdaemun-gu Conducts Joint Disaster Response Drill with Related Agencies in Preparation for Jungnangcheon Spring Flower Festival on April 1-2
Drill for Response and Evacuation in Case of Crowd Congestion Accidents at the Spring Flower Festival
Dongdaemun-gu (Mayor Lee Pil-hyung) conducted a "Crowd Congestion Accident Response Field Drill" on March 29 at Jungnangcheon 1st Sports Park to effectively respond to potential accidents during the spring flower festival.
This year’s spring flower festival will officially open on April 1 and 2, featuring various cultural performances and side events such as busking performances, a carbon neutrality experience center, and food booths. Approximately 35,000 residents are expected to visit and enjoy the festival.
Accordingly, under the assumption of a crowd congestion accident occurring during the festival, the district conducted training focused on ▲familiarizing disaster response personnel with their duties ▲checking the cooperation system with related agencies such as fire and police departments ▲identifying expected evacuation routes and shortest casualty transport paths ▲securing nearby temporary shelters, aiming to prioritize residents’ safety in case of a congestion accident.
About 140 participants took part in the joint drill, including Dongdaemun-gu officials, three related agencies (Dongdaemun Fire Station, Dongdaemun Police Station, Korean Red Cross Northern Volunteer Center), and safety-related private organizations such as the Autonomous Disaster Prevention Group and Safety Security Guards, establishing an organic cooperation system to respond swiftly in case of an incident.
