This visiting counseling bus will be operated in cooperation with local governments, the Ministry of Health and Welfare, and the Jeonse Damage Support Center to ensure that victims of jeonse fraud do not miss out on existing support measures due to lack of awareness.

In Michuhol-gu, Incheon, where large-scale group damage has occurred, a bus capable of providing psychological counseling will be operated starting today, and the Housing and Urban Guarantee Corporation, which oversees the Jeonse Damage Support Center, will operate a bus from the 21st that offers one-stop services including psychological counseling, legal counseling, and damage support programs.

Additionally, the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport plans to expand a team of about 200 legal and psychological counseling professionals and, in cooperation with local governments, operate on-site booths in areas where large-scale damage has occurred.

Meanwhile, the Ministry of Health and Welfare plans to actively support the on-site implementation of welfare services and psychological support services for the livelihood support of victims of jeonse fraud.

Minister Won Hee-ryong stated, "Through the visiting counseling service, we will do our best to help tenants affected by jeonse fraud quickly escape the dark tunnel."
