On October 18, at 2 PM., a total of 240 people from 21 fire departments of Yeoju, Yeoju City Hall, Yeoju Police Station, Korea Electric Safety Corporation, two Infantry divisions of the 3901th Army Unit, Amateur Radio Union, and Seroun hospital participated in the drill at Yeoju headquarters to prepare for any occasion of large fire. It is the first time that a number of organizations participated in the drill although they have conducted their own fire drills in the past.
The drill, which was conducted by five units and 10 sub units set according to their own roles to simulate the multiple casualties caused by large fires and the collapse of buildings, is aimed at minimizing the damage of large fire, as it is designed to promptly respond to the fire, notification of fire, evacuation, life saving, and restoration. 

 "The Emergency Response System of Yeoju is well equipped with a cooperative system with nearby regions such as Icheon, Anyang, Suwon and Yangpyeong," said Kim Chang-ki, the second division chief of the field response team, who add “we will do our best to protect the lives and property of the residents by strengthening the foundation by providing a quick response to a major disaster through the general training accompanied by civil officers.”
