Busan Transportation Corporation, Busan Design Promotion Agency, and Pukyong University Produce 'Urban Railway Safety Rules with Boogie' Animation

Achievements of the Youth Work Experience-Linked 'B-SAFE Project'
To Be Released in Subway Stations, Trains, and on Social Media Starting Late November

Busan Transportation Corporation (President Lee Byungjin) has produced the animation 'Urban Railway Safety Rules with Boogie' through the 'B-SAFE Project,' which was carried out in collaboration with the Busan Design Promotion Agency and the National Pukyong University.

This project was initiated when the corporation proposed to the Busan Design Promotion Agency the idea of providing local unemployed youth with experience in creating public institution content.

Linked to the Future Tomorrow Work Experience Program, the project ran for about two months starting from September 8, with the corporation, the promotion agency, and Pukyong University working together to actively support the participating students in improving their practical skills.

To enhance participants' understanding of urban railways, the corporation operated the 'Cultural Heritage Train History Exhibition Hall Tour Program,' introducing the history of Busan's urban railway and major safety accident cases. In addition, integrity education was provided to help participants acquire the basic qualities necessary for public institution work. The Busan Design Promotion Agency contributed by offering pre-job training and assigning design expert mentors to strengthen the students' content creation capabilities.

The animation produced this time is designed so that any citizen can easily understand the urban railway safety rules. Boogie, the Busan city communication character familiar to local residents, appears to guide viewers in an engaging way through six safety rules: using the next train if the subway doors are closed, being cautious of slipping, preventing door entrapment accidents, watching out for platform gaps, holding onto handrails inside the train, and holding the handrail when using escalators.

This content is scheduled to be released sequentially to citizens starting at the end of November through destination indicators and customer information displays in subway stations, electronic route information displays inside trains, and the corporation's official social media channels.

Lee Byungjin, President of Busan Transportation Corporation, said, "This project is a meaningful example of collaboration between the corporation, local organizations, and youth to spread a culture of urban railway safety," adding, "We will do our best to create a safe urban railway environment in cooperation with the local community."
