The drill began at exactly 2 p.m. with an air raid alarm, simulating an enemy air attack. Participants quickly moved to pre-designated shelters, and the drill concluded 20 minutes later when the alarm was lifted and everyone returned. Residents voluntarily and orderly took part in the exercise, and under the guidance of evacuation coordinators stationed on each floor, there were no safety incidents.
Mayor Jeong personally supervised the site and participated in the evacuation drill alongside residents. Additionally, a session was held to educate residents on emergency procedures, raising safety awareness.
Mayor Jongbok Jeong stated, "Thanks to the active participation and mature civic awareness of our residents, we were able to complete the drill successfully," adding, "We will do our utmost to strengthen emergency preparedness and protect the lives and safety of our residents."
