Korean drama appeal leads to traffic chaos
Print Edition
MINHANG District police yesterday said between January and March they logged 1,832 illegal parking incidents on Hongquan Road, known for its Korean-style restaurants, after fans of Korea dramas swarmed there to taste Korean cuisine.
At dinner time, the four-lane, 1.3-kilometer-long road was fully parked with private cars on both sides, causing severe traffic jams. The situation got even worse when parents came to pick up their children from a nearby school.
Minhang police sent more officers to guide traffic in the area and crack down on illegal parking. As a result, instances of illegal parking decreased dramatically this month.
