The Busan Transportation Corporation has completed installing surveillance cameras on all of the 458 subway cars currently in operation on Busan Metro.

Each subway car has 3 or 4 CCTV cameras installed to eliminate blindspots and the cameras have high-definition lenses with more than 2 million pixels to clearly identify those on the subway.

The footage can be screened from the conductor’s room to check on emergency situations in real-time.

The recorded footage will only be used for criminal investigations in accordance with related laws.
