This new commuter circulation bus for middle and high school students is a project promoted through cooperation between Anseong City and the Anseong Office of Education to alleviate the commuting difficulties for students in areas underserved by public transportation. It is part of a student-oriented transportation welfare policy. Notably, the bus operates flexibly, adjusting to different school dismissal times by school and day of the week. In addition, the name 'An(安)nyeong(YOUNG) Bus' embodies the hope of starting a comfortable morning commute and beginning each school day with cheerful greetings among friends.

The launch ceremony was attended by the Mayor of Anseong, the Chair and members of the City Council, the Superintendent of the Anseong Office of Education, the Principal of Gaon High School, student representatives, and officials from the transportation company. The student representative expressed gratitude, saying, "I am looking forward to the bus being a great help to friends who have endured long and inconvenient commutes."

After the ceremony, key guests boarded the commuter bus and conversed with students. They experienced the actual commuting route and listened to students' opinions, reaffirming the need for field-oriented policies.

Anseong City expects that operating the commuter circulation bus will enhance the mobility of students in areas with transportation challenges, create a safer commuting environment, and help reduce the burden on parents.
