The Korean Olympic Committee's (President Yoo Seung-min) Athletes' Committee delivered a guide for improving living culture in the National Team Village on the 15th, aimed at promoting energy conservation and fostering a community culture, and requested the participation of national team athletes.

The Korean Olympic Committee explained that the guidelines were established to reflect the importance of resource security amid the Middle East energy crisis, the need for power conservation and efficient operations within the athletes' village, and the necessity of improving public order and the use of public facilities.

He further added, "The committee members, including the Players' Committee Kim Guk-yeong (Chairman), agreed that it is necessary to establish a lifestyle culture centered on voluntary participation and improved awareness, based on the responsibility and sense of mission as national team representatives, and thus prepared this guideline."

The LINE guidelines are composed of two areas: energy conservation and efficient operation, and improvement of living order and community culture.

First, in the area of "energy saving and efficient operation," the following measures were proposed: turning off lights in dormitories and training facilities; maintaining appropriate temperatures for air conditioning and heating units; cutting power to unused electronic devices; reducing food waste and disposable products; and encouraging the use of shared transportation.

The "Improvement of Social Order and Community Culture" category includes: establishing parking discipline and safe driving; making it a habit to tidy up after using shared facilities; protecting facilities and using them responsibly; and showing consideration for other users while adhering to etiquette.

Additionally, if the proposed guidelines are not followed and issues continue to arise, the Players Committee is also considering reviewing the establishment of stricter disciplinary measures following further discussions.

Kim Guk-yeong (Chairman) stated, "This guideline was established to enable athletes to focus on training in a more comfortable environment and to strengthen their sense of responsibility as national representatives," adding, "We hope that energy conservation and a community culture will spread naturally."

Kim Taek-soo, head of the National Athletes' Village, said, "In response to the energy crisis, we have provided guidelines to help athletes take the lead in energy conservation and create a comfortable living environment," adding that he will actively guide the implementation of the proposed guidelines on the ground.
