📢 Drug/Weapons Inspection Announcement

📌 Beginning in January 2025, South Korean customs officials will conduct immediate drug/weapons inspection of the passengers arriving on (unspecified) selected flights known to be used in drug smuggling operations.
📌 This will occur before immigration processing to prevent contraband from changing hands in the crowd.
📌 There is no need to be alarmed if you see an unexpected checkpoint upon arrival.
