Seongdong-gu District Mayor Yu Bo-hwa conducted emergency field inspections Wednesday to check on the safety of vulnerable residents and outdoor workers in the district amid an active heat wave warning.
Yu visited a redevelopment site in Yongdap-dong to inspect safety management conditions for outdoor workers, then stopped by the Yonghwa Senior Center — a designated heat shelter — and called on vulnerable households in the district to check cooling conditions and hear concerns from elderly residents.
Seongdong-gu is operating a comprehensive heat response command center and has focused its administrative resources on protecting vulnerable groups, including running 24-hour heat shelters and rest facilities for essential and platform workers, and conducting regular welfare checks on elderly residents living alone.
