This year, 4,604 test-takers in the Uijeongbu area are scheduled to take the exam at eight test sites, including Uijeongbu High School. The city is making every effort to ease traffic congestion and maintain order around the test sites to ensure the convenience and safety of the examinees.


On the day of the exam, the city will delay the start time for city hall employees by one hour (from 9 a.m. to after 10 a.m.) and will support examinee transportation by controlling traffic near the test sites and increasing public transportation services. In addition, during the English listening test (1:10 p.m. to 1:35 p.m.), noise from construction sites and sports facilities will be strictly managed, and an emergency disaster prevention work system will be activated to prepare for adverse weather conditions such as snow or cold waves.



Kim Donggeun, Mayor of Uijeongbu, stated, "The city will spare no effort to provide support so that all examinees can take the test in optimal condition," adding, "We will do our utmost in all areas, including traffic, noise, and safety, to create an environment where examinees can fully concentrate on the test."
