The Busan Metropolitan Police Agency sent officers to BEXCO’s CCTV control room to monitor the congestion in real-time, preparing for any emergency events.

Two vehicles with a mobile broadcasting system were also deployed near the ticket booth for congestion management.

The number of security guards has also been doubled compared to 2019, when G-Star attracted the largest number of visitors, as part of an initiative to ensure safety, organizers said.
