Soak Your Feet, Drink Beer, Pay 100,000 Won... Cheonggyecheon Stream Tightens Regulations

Let's take a look at the final piece of useful news.

Cheonggyecheon Stream 100,000 won.

That doesn't mean they are giving you 100,000 won.

It is a plan to impose a 100,000 won penalty.

The sight of people soaking their feet and drinking beer, which could often be seen at Cheonggyecheon Stream, will be strictly prohibited from now on.

This is because the Seoul Metropolitan Government is designating the entire section of Cheonggyecheon Stream as a non-smoking and no-drinking zone.

They are pushing for a plan to implement fines as early as the second half of this year.

Until now, acts like drinking, smoking, cooking, and sleeping rough were prohibited, but there was no legal basis to impose fines even if violations occurred.

However, from now on, violators could face a maximum fine of 100,000 won.

This measure follows criticisms that management needs to be strengthened amid a series of disorderly behaviors by some visitors recently.

Since there are also many foreign tourists, please keep this in mind.
