Mayor Yuseonghun nominated Lee Seong, Mayor of Guro District, Kim Jeongtae, Chair of the Seoul Metropolitan Council's Steering Committee, and Chae Inmuk, Chair of the Seoul Metropolitan Council's Planning and Economy Committee as the next participants.

Mayor Yuseonghun of Geumcheon District said, "Through daily practice, we must create a future for Korea where children are safe and happy," and added, "To create a living environment where children's safety is prioritized, not only will the district implement traffic safety policies, but we also ask all residents to participate together through daily practice."

Meanwhile, the district is making efforts to achieve zero child traffic accidents by installing traffic safety facilities such as ground traffic lights, pedestrian crossing voice guidance aids, and signal speed enforcement cameras around child protection zones and major school routes, as well as strengthening illegal parking enforcement within child protection zones.
