Park Gang-su, Mayor of Mapo District, Conducts Emergency Safety Inspection for Coupang Play Match at World Cup Stadium

Mayor Park Gang-su took charge of crowd safety management ahead of the '2023 Coupang Play Series' held at the World Cup Stadium on the evening of the 27th.

The district anticipated a total attendance of approximately 65,000 spectators, with matches on the 27th featuring a K League team against the Spanish prestigious club Atletico Madrid, and on the 30th featuring Manchester City, prompting an urgent safety inspection.

The district formed a safety management team by mobilizing about 40 employees from the Public Safety Division and Parking Management Division, focusing on monitoring pedestrian hazards around World Cup Stadium Station during peak crowd times before and after the matches, as well as enforcing parking regulations and crowd safety around the stadium.

Before the match started, Mayor Park Gang-su inspected both inside and outside the stadium and instructed related departments to "closely monitor to prevent large crowds from concentrating all at once at subway stations, stairways, and entrances/exits, and to strictly control vehicle traffic to prevent illegal parking and traffic accidents."

The district announced plans to conduct crowd density safety inspections for the upcoming match between Manchester City and Atletico Madrid on the 30th to ensure thorough safety management.
