Yeouido Cherry Blossom Festival postponed due to impeachment trial in Seoul, South Korea

The Yeongdeungpo district of Seoul, South Korea, announced that "due to the announcement of the date for the impeachment trial sentence, the start date of the Cherry Blossom Festival, which was originally scheduled for the 4th, will be postponed to the 8th."
The Yeongdeungpo district held an emergency meeting at 3 p.m. on the 1st to decide on the start of the event, anticipating a large number of people gathering around the National Assembly around the date of the announcement of the impeachment trial of President Yoon Seok-yeol.
The Yeongdeungpo district government decided on the above plan after discussing various options for the event. It determined that many people would visit the cherry blossom-lined streets of Yeouido during the cherry blossom season.
As a result, we have decided to postpone the start of the event by four days and scale down the scale of the event, focusing on ensuring the safety and convenience of visitors.
The rescheduled event will take place from the 8th to the 12th, and will be held under enhanced safety measures.
Public servants, volunteers, police and firefighters will be on hand to help with the cherry blossom-lined streets, where crowds are expected to gather.
They are concentrated in one place and will focus all their efforts on maintaining order at the scene and preventing accidents. In addition, drones using AI technology will be used to grasp the situation, and if a crowd gathers, control will be provided through CCTV (surveillance cameras).
Triple monitoring will be carried out at the center, the disaster safety situation room, and the safety and fire situation room, and audio announcements will be made.
In addition, there are 12 toilets, a medical situation room, a children's rest area, and a rest area.
These will be installed to help citizens enjoy cherry blossom viewing in comfort.
