On July 18, the Seoul Jungbu Police Station announced that, as part of the "Jungbu Safe Park Initiative," the installation of a police officer hologram information board at Jeodong 3 Park led to an approximately 22% decrease in crime within the park's vicinity.

The hologram information board, designed to match the actual size of a person, automatically operates daily from 7 p.m. to 10 p.m., reflecting the area's characteristics where there is a high demand for police presence due to incidents such as drunken violence and disturbances. The hologram police officer delivers a repeated audio message stating, "This area is equipped with intelligent CCTV. In case of emergencies such as violence, the police will respond in real time."

Andonghyun, Chief of Seoul Jungbu Police Station, stated, "The hologram information board has established itself as a smart policing device that enhances citizens' sense of safety and provides a psychological deterrent against disorderly conduct." He added, "We will continue to expand crime prevention activities that incorporate artificial intelligence (AI) technology to create a park environment where citizens can feel safe."
