To raise social awareness about the eradication of violence against women, the campaign was held mainly at Guri Station Plaza, a place with heavy foot traffic. The campaign focused on creating a consensus on the importance of protecting a safe daily life through activities such as distributing promotional materials for preventing illegal filming and digital sex crimes, and detecting the installation of illegal filming devices.

In particular, this campaign gained more significance as it was conducted jointly with the Guri City Illegal Filming Citizen Surveillance Group (Director Hong Yeon-hee), the Guri Branch of the Gyeonggi-do Women's Organizations Council (Branch Chief Hong Yeon-hee), and the Sutak Autonomous Crime Prevention Unit of Guri City (Captain Jeon Seong-gyu).

Mayor Baek Kyung-hyun of Guri City stated, “Only by everyone’s attention can we maintain a safe daily life free from violence against women. I believe this campaign will serve as an opportunity to raise sensitivity toward violence threatening our lives, and we will continue to make greater efforts to create a safe urban environment and culture.”
