Gangnam-gu, Seoul (District Mayor Jo Seong-myeong) announced on the 23rd that it produced 1,000 packaging paper tapes printed with QR codes containing related information to protect local youth from overlapping crimes such as drugs and gambling and to prevent school violence, and delivered them to Gangnam Post Office the day before.

The tapes delivered on this day were produced through cooperation among related local institutions including the district office, Gangnam and Suseo Police Stations, Gangnam District Council, and the casino public enterprise Grand Korea Leisure (GKL), and will be attached to all parcels sent from post offices within Gangnam-gu.

About 30 people attended the delivery ceremony, including officials from Gangnam and Suseo Police Stations, Gangnam District Council member Kim Jin-gyeong, and students from the Gangnam-gu Youth Policy Advisory Group, and a relay challenge campaign to prevent youth school violence and addictive crimes was also held.
