Local health authorities across various South Korean regions have launched the ‘Red Circle Campaign’ throughout September to promote the prevention and management of cardiovascular diseases. In Siheung and Bupyeong-gu, the initiative focuses on monitoring blood pressure, blood sugar, and cholesterol levels. Programs include mobile health booths, metabolic syndrome testing, health lectures, and walking challenges via mobile applications to engage students, office workers, and seniors. Uiseong County has also implemented the ‘Know Your Vascular Numbers, Red Circle Campaign’ in response to high diagnosis rates for hypertension and diabetes alongside low continuous treatment rates. The county’s efforts aim to move beyond simple measurements toward promoting medication adherence and lifestyle improvements through customized lectures and multi-channel communication targeting diverse demographics, including military personnel and individuals with disabilities. ## Timeline ### 2026-09-02: Uiseong County launches cardiovascular disease prevention campaign Uiseong County is running a month-long campaign to prevent cardiovascular disease by teaching residents to monitor blood pressure, blood sugar, and cholesterol levels. 3 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/uiseong-county-launches-cardiovascular-disease-prevention-campaign ### 2026-08-28: South Korean cities launch Red Circle Campaign for cardiovascular health Health centers in Siheung and Bupyeong-gu are conducting the September ‘Red Circle Campaign’ to help citizens monitor blood pressure, blood sugar, and cholesterol to prevent cardiovascular diseases. 2 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/south-korean-cities-launch-red-circle-campaign-for-cardiovascular-health --- Cite as: South Korean cardiovascular health campaigns.
