First, the Public Relations Office independently produced various promotional materials, including ▲six anti-drug videos ▲four types of posters, stickers, two types of flyers, leaflets, newsletters ▲box tape ▲and disposable aprons.


They also implemented a special policy called the 'Creating a Drug-Free Zone 9-Station Project,' establishing nine promotional directions through SNS, newspapers, and other channels to actively inform citizens about drug crime prevention.


Collaboration was carried out with various external organizations such as the Gwangju Autonomous Police Committee, the Anti-Drug Movement Headquarters, local governments, education offices, media outlets, and universities to promote budget support, joint promotional materials production, and joint campaigns.


Thanks to these activities, as of September this year, the number of 'drug suspicion' 112 emergency calls reached 304, a 4.1-fold increase compared to 75 calls during the same period last year.


The number of arrests resulting from 112 calls increased 5.1 times to 56 this year, compared to 11 last year.



A Gwangju Metropolitan Police Agency official stated on the 25th, "We have declared a crackdown on drug crimes and are continuing focused enforcement," adding, "We ask for active tips and reports to help create a safe Gwangju."
