The city installed these number plates along major pedestrian routes with high foot traffic, including Ilsan Lake Park, where the 2026 Goyang International Flower Expo will be held, and Goyang Sports Complex, which hosts large-scale performances such as BTS concerts.

The basic number plates are address information facilities installed on streetlights or traffic lights along roads without buildings, providing current location information.

The newly installed smart number plates offer voice guidance of the current location when the QR code is scanned and also provide a one-touch emergency text reporting function. In addition, they are linked to the Ministry of the Interior and Safety’s address information website, enabling precise location lookup.

Furthermore, by scanning the QR code, users can access the Goyang International Flower Expo website and digital maps, allowing them to easily check event and tourist information at a glance.

A Goyang City official stated, "We expect the smart number plates to further strengthen the local safety network," and added, "We will continue our efforts so that Goyang citizens and visitors can safely and conveniently enjoy events and sightseeing."

Meanwhile, the city manages more than 67,000 address information facilities, including building number plates and object address plates, in addition to the basic number plates. Going forward, Goyang City plans to continuously provide various event, cultural, and tourism information through QR codes on these facilities.
