Most of you pay monthly and have insurance in case you get hurt or sick, right?

However, if you are a citizen of the Republic of Korea, there is one insurance policy you have signed up for without your knowledge.

This is Citizen Safety Insurance. When taking public transportation, fires, natural disasters, and accidents in school zones. It guarantees quite a lot of compensation for personal accidents, etc.

This is an insurance that provides support of up to 20 million won in the event of an unexpected accident.

If the local government in question is subscribed to safety insurance and you are a citizen with an address in the area, you are automatically enrolled without any additional procedures.

In addition, it is paid in duplicate regardless of other insurance you have personally subscribed to.

 

 

There is a simple way to find out if your area is eligible.

All you have to do is go to the National Disaster Safety Portal and search for your area in Citizen Safety Insurance. Insurance money does not come out automatically,

but you have to claim it within up to 3 years from the date of the accident and there is a payment procedure, so if an accident occurs, you must first contact the counseling center.

 

 

Even if an accident occurs in another area, the relevant item is unconditionally covered as long as it is insured.

Each local government covers different items and insurance companies, so be sure to find out what your area is like.
