During this inspection, Gyeonggi Province immediately addressed urgent or minor issues found on site, such as icy worker passageways, fire extinguisher pressure defects, and gaps in protective tarps. For issues requiring follow-up actions like repairs and reinforcements, continuous management will be conducted through the respective cities and counties.

Hong Il-young, head of the Apartment Housing Division of Gyeonggi Province, stated, "During winter, low temperatures can increase the risk of safety accidents at construction sites," adding, "We will continue to secure construction quality and safety through regular annual inspections of apartment construction sites during the winter season."
