According to Mokpo Coast Guard, the Coastal Safety Accident Risk Forecast System is a measure based on the "Coastal Accident Safety Management Regulations." It is designed to inform the public of risks and prevent accidents in dangerous areas such as piers and coastal waters during specific periods when adverse weather or natural disasters are expected. The system is divided into three levels: Attention, Advisory, and Warning.

The "Advisory" level of the Coastal Accident Risk Forecast System is issued when there is a high risk of safety accidents or concerns about the spread of damage. During the advisory period, the Coast Guard plans to strengthen sea and land patrols, focusing on dangerous coastal areas such as coastal waters, ports, and tidal rocks. They will also intensify public awareness and safety guidance activities through collaboration with local governments, patrol station electronic displays, and public announcements to prevent coastal safety accidents.

A Mokpo Coast Guard official requested, "Please check weather information frequently during this period and refrain from maritime activities if adverse weather is expected."
