On October 6, the Gwangmyeong Fire Department conducted safety activities with children from the Yedaum Daycare Center's youth firefighters to promote local safety culture.
According to the fire department, the participating children walked around the Gwangmyeong-dong area, observing their surroundings, collecting litter, and identifying potential hazards, such as items piled around fire hydrants that could obstruct firefighting efforts.
The children also engaged in activities to inform citizens about fire prevention safety rules for the fall season.
They distributed informational materials on fire prevention, highlighting the importance of residential fire safety equipment and practical safety measures that can be implemented in daily life.
This initiative was significant as it allowed children not only to receive safety education but also to actively identify local hazards and participate in environmental cleanup.
Citizens observing the event viewed the children's involvement in identifying risks and participating in cleanup efforts positively.
In particular, there was interest in the children delivering fire prevention materials to residents, as it provided a natural way for them to learn about the importance of safety from a young age.
Fire Chief Yoo Hae-gong stated, "This was an opportunity for children to learn the importance of safety in their daily lives by directly observing the community's safety and environment. We plan to continue activities that foster a safety culture in collaboration with the community."
