Sejong Police Focus on Juvenile Delinquency After College Scholastic Ability Test
Intensive Inspections of Harmful Establishments Planned
In preparation for next year’s College Scholastic Ability Test, graduation ceremonies, and the winter break, the Sejong Metropolitan Police Agency and the Autonomous Police Committee have decided to strengthen guidance and protection activities to prevent various forms of juvenile delinquency.
According to the police, the period until the 16th of this month has been designated as the first special guidance period. During this time, school police officers are providing preventive education, and joint campaigns and inspections of harmful environments are being carried out in cooperation with local governments and related organizations. From the 17th through the end of February next year, a second intensive period will be implemented to reinforce the system for discovering at-risk youth, connecting them with specialized agencies, and preventing recidivism.
The main initiatives include educating students and parents about the forgery or misuse of identification cards, as well as the prevention of online gambling. In collaboration with the education office and local governments, joint inspections and guidance activities are also being conducted in areas with a high concentration of private academies and establishments considered harmful to youth.
Additionally, the police plan to strengthen monitoring of juvenile cases and intelligence gathering through social media, and to analyze factors contributing to delinquency and the risk of repeat offenses through interviews with at-risk youth. The goal is to connect these individuals with specialized agencies and operate customized guidance programs.

We will continue to strengthen guidance and protection activities for youth in cooperation with the local community to ensure that no one makes a regrettable mistake in a moment of misjudgment.”
