Installation of Solar-Powered LED Tobacco Prohibition Signs in Seoul
South Korean government installs solar-powered LED tobacco ban signs in three smoke-free zones in Seoul to promote smoke-free environment.

In order to create a tobacco-free and smoke-free environment, the South Korean government recently installed solar-powered LED tobacco prohibition signage in three designated smoke-free zones within the Seoul Seodaemun-gu district.

 

The system does not require an external power source and can emit light during the night. It displays information about non-smoking areas, non-smoking parks, and the harm caused by secondhand smoke within a 24-hour period. Additionally, it also functions as an illuminating streetlight.
