Story summary
- South Korea’s justice ministry launched a real-time tracking app for stalking survivors in late June 2026.
- The app shows a tagged stalker’s location within a 2 km radius and alerts police within 1 km.
- About 400 survivors use the service, and two centres process roughly 19,000 alerts daily.
- Around 300 serious alerts each day prompt a probation officer to act, though each monitors over 20 tagged people.
