Youngtong-gu Crackdown on Illegal Advertisements around Ajou University Entrance

Youngtong-gu (District Chief Choi Hee-soon) conducted a special nighttime crackdown on illegal advertisements on December 22nd in the commercial area surrounding the Ajou University entrance, targeting illegal air lights, standing signs, and banners that inconvenience pedestrians and significantly detract from the city's aesthetic appearance.

The enforcement operation involved 27 personnel from joint efforts with police to build a people-centered hopeful city in Youngtong. They removed 12 air lights, 15 standing signs, and 32 banners. Large building exterior hanging banners and guerrilla-style banners will be handled by issuing warnings and encouraging voluntary removal, while habitual and chronic violators will face strengthened administrative sanctions.

An official from the district stated, "Moving forward, we will continue systematic crackdowns and cleanups with a firm resolve to eradicate illegal outdoor advertising from the root, working to create a pleasant urban landscape and build a human-centered city where people feel welcome."
