Jangan-gu Night Special Crackdown on Illegal Advertisements

Jangan-gu (District Chief Hong Sung-gwan) announced on the 27th that on the 23rd, it organized a 20-member special crackdown team to conduct cleanup operations against illegal advertising in commercial areas in five neighborhoods including Jeongja-dong.

This crackdown was conducted jointly by Jangan-gu and related organizations including the Korean Veterans for Agent Orange Relief Suwon Branch, which formed special crackdown teams to intensively crack down on various illegal activities including illegal advertisements that harm urban aesthetics, obscene and degenerate advertising content in areas around schools that are harmful to the environment, and youth-harmful advertisements.

The joint crackdown team removed approximately 15 illegal banners, 5 standing signs, and 8 air lights. First-time violators who were unaware of the illegality of the advertisements will be issued warnings and guided to conduct voluntary cleanup, while repeat offenders engaging in habitual illegal activities will face strengthened administrative measures.

A district official stated, "To create a pleasant urban environment, we cleaned up 34 ownerless signs this month. We will continue to conduct ongoing maintenance and crackdowns on illegal mobile advertisements that harm urban aesthetics and cause inconvenience to residents, thereby striving to build a clean and pleasant Suwon, a humanistic city where people are welcome."
