Lotte World employees tested their emergency response abilities on Wednesday, partaking in firefighting and CPR challenges intended to enhance their preparedness during critical situations. The amusement park operator collaborated with the Songpa Fire Station to host its 2026 Fire Safety Competition. This annual exercise comes amid heightened scrutiny of theme parks and densely populated public venues regarding crowd management and facility safety.
Major operators are stepping up beyond standard compliance to ensure frontline staff are equipped with real-time tactical readiness.
The competition focused on two primary scenarios: immediate fire suppression using indoor hydrants and emergency first aid. In the firefighting challenge, staff members demonstrated their skills by swiftly connecting hydrant systems, deploying hoses, and executing essential steps to contain flames before professional first responders arrive. In the medical segment, teams were assessed on their precision and speed when performing CPR on training mannequins and deploying automated external defibrillators.
