If You Hang Illegal Banners in Ulsan... Joint Inspection Team Expanded, Strong Response with Prosecution and Fines

Ulsan City Promotes '365 Days of a Clean City Free of Illegal Advertisements'

Establishing a Robust and Detailed Response System to Create a Pleasant Urban Environment

More than 50 illegal banners that used to appear daily on the streets of Ulsan will not be allowed to take root this year.

Ulsan City is launching a large-scale joint inspection of illegal advertisements this year in cooperation with district and county offices to build a clean city free of illegal advertisements 365 days a year.

Although a joint illegal advertisement cleanup team has been operating since the first half of last year, there were limitations in eradicating illegal activities due to exposure of enforcement areas and times.

In particular, illegal banners such as sales advertisements have been posted disorderly and suddenly in residential areas and major roads on weekends, making enforcement difficult.

Accordingly, Ulsan City has established the ‘Ulsan Metropolitan City Illegal Advertisement Joint Inspection Plan’ starting this year to build a meticulous and strong response system.

According to this plan, the number of joint cleanup team members will be increased for continuous operation, and inspections will be conducted frequently throughout Ulsan.

Especially for habitual violations, measures such as registering in an automatic warning system, imposing fines on all cases, and expanding reporting actions against habitual and large-scale violators of illegal advertisements, as well as advertisements with obscene, decadent content or those encouraging gambling, will be taken.

An official from Ulsan City emphasized, “We will do our best to eradicate illegal advertisements that spoil the city’s aesthetics and realize a ‘clean city Ulsan free of illegal advertisements 365 days a year.’”

Since March last year, the joint cleanup team operated by Ulsan City has removed 15,862 illegal banners, averaging 1,586 cases per month.
