Seongdong-gu Joint Drill Utilizing 'Walking Path Crime Prevention System'

Seongdong-gu and Seongdong Police Station Collaborate for Joint Training Using 'Walking Trail Crime Prevention System' Installed at 279 Points in 50 Locations across 17 Neighborhoods... Comprehensive Check of Emergency Response Skills Including Year-End Dating Violence and Stalking, Coordination with Related Agencies, and On-Site Dispatch

Seongdong-gu, Seoul (Mayor Jeong Wono) will conduct a joint drill with the Seongdong Police Station on December 5 using the 'Crime Prevention System for Walking Trails.'

This joint drill with the Seongdong Police Station is designed to perfectly respond to actual emergency situations to protect residents' safety and daily life. It will be conducted under a simulated scenario where a female student returning home near the back gate of Hanyang Women's University is expected to be a victim of dating violence crime.

The entire process from emergency alerts to inter-agency coordination, on-site dispatch, and suspect apprehension will be carried out as if it were real. About 20 personnel, including the Seongdong-gu Integrated Operation Center, which oversees Seongdong-gu CCTV control, the Seongdong Police Station (Crime Prevention Division), the 112 situation room, and local police officers, will participate.

The district plans to thoroughly check the linkage system with related agencies, comprehensively inspect the emergency response system and capabilities, and ensure residents' safety perfectly.

First Half-Year Simulation Training

The 'Seongdong-gu Crime Prevention System for Walking Trails' is a crime prevention policy first implemented nationwide last August in response to residents' anxiety and the surge in violent crimes in Sillim-dong and indiscriminate crimes targeting the general public. It is a system that allows individuals to use their smartphones like CCTV to alert in emergency situations.

When residents scan the information pattern (QR code) on the guide signs with their smartphones, they can transmit real-time video and audio from the scene to the Seongdong-gu Integrated Operation Center. In case of an emergency, it can be linked to the police or fire station, enabling rapid securing of residents' safety. Currently, guide signs are installed and operated at 279 points across 50 locations in 17 neighborhoods. Residents can use the system anytime within Seongdong-gu by calling the representative number or saving the webpage address posted on the Seongdong-gu Office website as a shortcut on their smartphone home screen.

Jeong Wono, Mayor of Seongdong-gu, said, “We will continue to promote all administrative services that help residents so that no one is excluded and everyone can use them conveniently.” He added, “Through this drill, we will establish a perfect emergency response system and ultimately create a safe Seongdong-gu free from crime.”
