Seoul Eunpyeong-gu (District Mayor Kim Mi-kyung) announced that it is carrying out the ‘111 Campaign’ to promote proper separation and reduction of household waste.


The ‘111 Campaign’ is an abbreviation for the ‘1 Day 1 Household 100g Waste Reduction Campaign,’ which is led by residents.


Eunpyeong-gu spends 44 billion KRW annually to process 288 tons of waste generated daily. Since the beginning of this year, the district has been informing residents about waste reduction and proper separation methods through visiting resource circulation education. Promotional materials containing household waste practice guides have been created and distributed, and the district also visits organizations directly to provide promotion and education.


In particular, starting from the 29th, an event called ‘Waste Public Wanted’ will be held to encourage younger generations to take an interest in creating a waste reduction culture and participate in the ‘111 Campaign.’


‘Waste Public Wanted’ involves properly separating recyclables such as transparent PET bottles, plastics, glass, vinyl, paper, and cans, taking a certification photo, and participating by accessing the corresponding QR code. Participation is also possible directly through the Eunpyeong-gu Office website.


Eligible participants are residents of Eunpyeong-gu as well as students and workers located in Eunpyeong-gu. The prize is a mobile Happy Money cultural gift certificate worth 5,000 KRW. The event will continue until the prizes are exhausted.


For more details, please refer to the Eunpyeong-gu Office website or contact the Resource Circulation Division by phone.



Kim Mi-kyung, Mayor of Eunpyeong-gu, said, “If all residents of Eunpyeong-gu participate and practice the 1 Day 1 Household 100g Reduction Campaign, an annual budget of 3.2 billion KRW can be saved,” and added, “We hope that residents will continue to practice reducing waste by 100g per day together.”
