Hwasun County is launching an intensive crackdown on illegal activities in forests in preparation for the rise in visitors during the peak summer vacation season.

This crackdown aims to protect forest resources and establish a healthy culture of forest use. The county has formed its own inspection teams consisting of forest judicial police officers and 'Forest Love' guides to strengthen on-site checks. The main targets of the operation are popular tourist areas, with a particular focus on illegal commercial activities, unauthorized facility installations, acts that pollute the forest such as illegal dumping of waste, and cooking in areas adjacent to forests.

For minor violations, guidance will be provided on-site. However, strict measures such as fines and judicial action in accordance with relevant laws will be imposed for forest destruction or habitual illegal acts. Along with the crackdown, the county will also carry out environmental maintenance activities such as collecting trash in the forests, so that visitors can enjoy pleasant forest recreation spaces.

A Hwasun County official stated, "We hope that all residents and visitors will actively participate in forest conservation, so that we can pass on our beautiful forests intact to future generations."
