Yeongdeungpo-gu, Seoul (Mayor Choi Ho-kwon) announced on the 22nd that it will produce and distribute an ‘Outdoor Advertisement Guidebook’ to effectively manage illegal outdoor advertisements that damage the cityscape and to help advertisers and advertising businesses understand.

This guidebook contains various contents such as standards for advertisement installation, permits and reporting targets, maintenance of illegal advertisements, and measures for violations. In particular, it was produced so that anyone can easily understand by easily explaining the location, height, and specifications of advertisements according to their installation location, such as on walls, windows, and rooftops, with photos and illustrations.

Outdoor advertisements have been installed indiscriminately, disrupting the streetscape and, in particular, not being in harmony with the surrounding landscape. The district expects that this unified guideline will contribute to improving the image of a clean city center and creating a safe and pleasant living environment.
