Seoul's Seocho-gu will run the "Asia-Pacific Justice Hub Mission Challenge Season 3" from Thursday through Nov. 1, inviting residents and visitors to explore the major landmarks of the Asia-Pacific Justice Hub around Seocho Station.

The Asia-Pacific Justice Hub is Seocho-gu's flagship project to develop the Seocho-dong legal district — home to the Supreme Court, Seoul High Court and other major judicial institutions — into a center of judicial justice for the Asia-Pacific region.

Season 3 is designed to let participants naturally encounter key spaces and landmarks by walking the hub area stretching from Seoripul Park to Gyodae Station.

The challenge runs through the walking app CashWalk in two formats: a stamp challenge, in which participants visit designated locations, and a photo-certification challenge, in which they photograph specified sites and facilities.

The stamp challenge uses smartphone GPS to guide participants to six marked locations, where they collect stamps by visiting in person. Sites include Seoripul Park, a successor juniper tree, the Supreme Court main gate and the Millennium Juniper symbolic space. The photo-certification challenge asks participants to find and photograph 10 designated spots and upload their images, covering a wide range of locations and installations across the hub.

The 10th and final mission is a special challenge tied to the marathon "Justice Run Seocho 2026," to be held Nov. 1. Participants must visit the Asia-Pacific Justice Hub promotional booth at Moonlight Plaza in Banpo Hangang Park between 7 a.m. and 10 a.m., pick up a leaflet, take a verification photo and upload it before the challenge closes.

Anyone can take part through the CashWalk app. A total of 2 million cash points will be distributed among participants in each of the two challenges — stamp and photo — with higher rewards going to those who complete more missions.

Meanwhile, the district refined the mission structure and participation format based on experience from Seasons 1 and 2 and feedback from participants. For Season 3, missions previously available only at night or on specific days of the week have been removed to make participation more convenient.

Seocho-gu District Mayor Jeon Seong-su said he hopes residents and visitors will use the autumn walking season to explore the hub and discover its key spaces through the Season 3 challenge. "We encourage everyone to experience the Asia-Pacific Justice Hub in a variety of ways, including through the special mission on Nov. 1," he said.
