In addition, in order to prevent the distribution of malicious posts such as cruel, hateful content and shocking scenes related to the accident, the KCC requested Internet service providers cooperate with self-regulations. Considering the seriousness of the situation, the KCC also asked for prompt reporting through the Korea Communications Standards Commission regarding content which violates broadcasting and communications regulations.. In addition, the KCC announced that it maintains close cooperation with the Central Disaster and Safety Countermeasures Headquarters for the Itaewon Accident, and requested that all KCC officials and staff of related organizations maintain working discipline during the national mourning period
