[Contributed] “Inclusive smart city is no longer an option, it is a necessity”
2022.09.22. / Dong-A Ilbo

 Advanced cities have helped to solve various urban issues and make life more convenient and efficient for citizens. For example, kiosks, which are being actively introduced everywhere in smart cities, showed many advantages, such as reducing labor costs, shortening time, and strengthening non-face-to-face responses to infectious diseases. However, the question remains as to who the convenience and efficiency enhancement are intended for. This is because the development of technology that we thought was necessary for everyone was making some people feel alienated. 

 Representative examples include the visually impaired who have difficulty touching the screen, the elderly who have difficulty distinguishing between screens, and wheelchair users and children who cannot use the screen due to its high screen. Considering even those who consider themselves digital illiterate because they are not familiar with the digital environment, there is even a sense of skepticism as to whether a smart city focused on cutting-edge and digital technologies is a sustainable city in the future.
