Gunpo City Corporation conducted civil defense training on August 20, in conjunction with the Eulji Exercise, to prepare for air raid situations and educate citizens on emergency action guidelines.
According to the corporation, the training aimed to ensure the safety of employees and facility users during emergencies, enhancing their ability to respond quickly and systematically in real situations.
The exercise simulated an air raid alert, guiding employees and users through evacuation procedures and checking the process of moving to designated shelters.
Participants were educated on action guidelines during air raids, precautions during evacuation, and response procedures in emergencies, thereby improving their preparedness for real-life situations.
In particular, the training included a review of emergency contact systems and evacuation facilities at each site, reassessing the roles and responsibilities of personnel to minimize confusion during emergencies.
Citizens participating in the Eulji Exercise and civil defense training expressed that learning the actual evacuation procedures for rare emergency situations heightened their awareness of safety. One participant noted, "Since this is a public facility used by my children, it was helpful to know how to act in an emergency."
Some citizens commented that the training was beneficial as it was conducted based on realistic scenarios rather than being a mere formality, aiding their understanding of evacuation methods.
Meanwhile, President Bae Jae-guk stated, "This training allowed us to assess our on-site response system for rapid action during air raid situations." He added, "We will continue to strengthen our safety management system, prioritizing the safety of employees and citizens through various disaster response training, including civil defense exercises."
