The Republic of Korea Sports Council (Chairman Yoo Seung-min) held a 2026 Emergency Comprehensive Rescue Drill at the Republic of Korea Sports Talent Development Institute on the 29th of last month, in collaboration with the Jangheung Fire Station, to ensure the safety of trainees.
Regarding the drill, the Republic of Korea Sports Council stated, "Since its establishment, the Republic of Korea Sports Talent Development Institute has been strengthening safety management and operating disaster inspection and response systems," and explained, "This drill was organized to protect the lives of trainees and ensure their safety, as well as to enhance initial response capabilities in the event of disasters such as fires."
It further added, "As the Republic of Korea Sports Talent Development Institute is a multi-use facility shared by trainees, venue lessees, visitors, and staff, it has established a site-centered response system capable of immediate action in actual situations. Based on this, it manages operations to ensure rapid dissemination of information and safety assurance in the event of a disaster."
The drill on this day was conducted by assuming a fire incident, comprehensively checking procedures including fire spread notification, initial firefighting, trainee evacuation guidance, search for persons, protection of key facilities, fire truck access, and on-site response protocols.
In particular, the drill focused on securing evacuation routes for trainees, ensuring rapid and safe guidance, and minimizing confusion in the event of an emergency.
Additionally, through this drill, the cooperation system with the Jangheung Fire Station was reviewed, and on-site response procedures centered on protecting trainees in the event of a disaster were reconfirmed.
Yoo Seung-min (Chairman) stated, "The safety of trainees must always be the top priority under any circumstances," and added, "Going forward, we will continue to cooperate closely with the Jangheung Fire Station and other relevant institutional investors to sustain effective drills and do our best to create a safe educational environment where trainees can study with peace of mind."
Meanwhile, the Republic of Korea Sports Talent Development Institute plans to continuously strengthen its safety management system centered on trainees through regular safety inspections and disaster response drills in the future.
