This inspection follows recent media reports of expired ice cream and snacks being found in unmanned stores. The district will focus on checking for expired products and overall hygiene conditions to ensure a safe food environment for children.


The main inspection items include: ▲ whether expired products are displayed or stored for sale ▲ compliance with storage standards for refrigerated and frozen foods ▲ and sanitary handling of other food items.



Kim Su-yun, Head of the Culture and Sanitation Division, stated, "Since unmanned stores are particularly prone to management blind spots, we will strengthen our checks on expiration dates and hygiene management to do our utmost in creating a safe food environment for children."
