The drug prevention campaign began on May 26 under the supervision of the National Police Agency. Participants take a certification photo with the image ‘Drugs are a maze with no exit (NO EXIT), never start’ and post it on social networking services (SNS), then nominate two more participants to continue the campaign. Actor Choi Bulam, an honorary police officer, started as the first participant, and the campaign is spreading among various local figures.


Mayor Hong said, “Drugs act directly on the brain, reducing the ability to control senses and emotions, making them extremely dangerous. I hope this serves as an opportunity to remind everyone once again of the addictive nature and serious harm of drugs, which are like a maze with no exit. Changwon City will do its best to create a drug-free city by promoting illegal drug eradication, providing education, and inspecting drug handling practices at medical and pharmaceutical establishments.”



Meanwhile, Mayor Hong nominated Kim Namgyun, President of the Korea Electrotechnology Research Institute, and Lee Jeonghwan, President of the Korea Institute of Materials Science, as the next participants.
