This campaign was carried out to prevent safety accidents that may occur when using the 65-meter-long escalator installed in the transfer passage at Guri Station, and to establish a proper culture of use. In particular, the campaign focused on preventing falls and collision accidents caused by walking or running on the escalator, and on encouraging passengers to stand in two lines and use the escalator safely.

On this day, a total of 25 people participated in the campaign, including representatives from Guri Urban Corporation, Korea Elevator Safety Agency, and Guri City security officers. They wore placards, vests, and sashes while informing passengers of safety rules such as holding the handrail while using the escalator and boarding inside the yellow safety line, as part of a promotional activity to raise safety awareness.

President Donghyuk Yoo stated, "This campaign aims to establish a culture of safe use at the Guri Station transfer passage escalator, which is the longest in Korea, and to put into practice Guri Urban Corporation’s philosophy, which prioritizes citizen safety as one of our ESG values." He added, "We will continue to strive to provide safe public services in partnership with the local community."
