Smart City Expo World Congress Barcelona 2024

We've come to the Korean Pavilion to talk to Young Suk Kim.
Korea achieved a very rapid economic growth with urbanisation Seoul has a high population density And its rich in hospitals, schools and job opportunities.
But we also struggled with the many problems of low birth rates, and the city being crowded.
So we struggle with many problems.
The priority is to create a people centered and sustainable city by solving our problems, based on data.
And improve our infrastructure so that the city information on traffic, congestion and crime prevention is delivered to an integrated control center, in the first stages, when developing the city.
And for example it collects, illegal parking images through CCTV and send warning messages to car owner so they move away And then it sends warning messages to car owners so they move away.
And it also controls traffic signal by monitoring traffic congestion and traffic condition in real time.
Korean operate a regulation sandbox system that makes it easy to test regulation on new services or innovative technologies.
This is a system that does not apply to current, regulation operator.
It can test and verify their new project and services under the current regulation.
Its also for small and medium sized enterprise and startups so Korea also supports them with this regulation.
