Recently, there was a revision in the national Fire Services Act. According to the amendment, no obstacle is allowed to be put in the hallway of the dormitory near the fire-prevention system because those objects could potentially interrupt firefighting.
According to this revised bill, all the drying racks, which were previously prevalent in the hallway, were required to be removed. However, realistically, it is not practical for students to put their drying racks in the room because of the room size.
To cope with this problem, an idea contest for drying rack installation was held by the working committee of dormitories, and the period for application was from May 8 to the last day of the month. The main focus of this contest was to find the most efficient and economical way to install a drying rack so that students can dry their clothes inside the room.
Winners of the contest will be announced on Jun. 5, and 1,000,000 KRW, 500,000 KRW, and 300,000 KRW will be given to the top three teams respectively with certificates of commendation.
