Gwangju Urban Corporation announced on the 21st that it had successfully completed the '2025 Eulji Exercise,' which was conducted over four days starting from the 18th.


This exercise simulated a national crisis situation and focused on thoroughly inspecting the operation of the integrated situation room, organizing emergency work shifts, maintaining continuity of key projects, and procedures for responding to disasters and safety incidents. The active participation of all executives and employees enhanced the effectiveness of the exercise.


In particular, on the 20th, a civil defense drill was conducted to prepare for air raids, during which employees participated in an actual evacuation drill alongside citizens. By experiencing the process of moving to designated shelters upon the sounding of evacuation sirens, participants learned emergency response procedures and strengthened their crisis response capabilities.


Through this Eulji Exercise, the corporation conducted realistic checks on various scenarios, including confirming the crisis reporting and communication system, inspecting the operation of the emergency contact network, familiarizing staff with wartime mobilization procedures, and strengthening safety management at major business sites. As a result, the corporation further reinforced its system to maintain core functions and ensure citizen safety even in emergencies.


President Kim Seungnam stated, "This Eulji Exercise and civil defense drill were invaluable experiences for all our staff to internalize how to respond in crisis situations. The corporation will continue to prioritize citizen safety and fulfill its responsibilities as a public institution, regardless of disasters or wartime situations."



Meanwhile, based on the results of this exercise, the corporation plans to continue conducting ongoing crisis management training and activities to promote a culture of safety, while working with the local community to create a safe and sustainable urban environment.
