The 2025 College Scholastic Ability Test, which was held at more than 1,200 test sites nationwide, has ended.
The 520,000 test takers and their families, who have been anxious since the morning, must be relieved.
I'm sure there are a lot of test takers who want to enjoy their free time today, right?
Let's connect the reporters on the spot to find out the atmosphere.

I think there are quite a few people.
How's the atmosphere?
[Reporter]
Yes, as time passes after the test, the streets of Hongdae are becoming more lively even on weekdays evening.
Since the end of the inquiry course, I've been here until now and met the examinees.
As soon as I finished the exam, I could see the students who visited Hongdae with their bags on.
The students' faces were full of bright smiles and regrets.Along with reactions such as
{It's time for liberation,'' and 'I can't relax until the results come out,' and 'I hope the score comes out well without making a mistake.'
Still, it was common for me to have a good time today as I did my big homework.
Let's listen to the test takers' stories firsthand.
[Kim Jaewon / Senior at Seocheon High School in Chungnam: I'm so happy that I've prepared hard for a year, but I'm able to make it through my hard work today. I want to relieve stress while shopping, eat delicious food, and play.]
[Soo Jae-yoon / Senior at Seoul PE High School: Eat a lot of delicious food, go to PC room, play billiards, do a lot of things that I couldn't do while working out and studying, but from now on, I'll get a driver's license....]
The test takers left memories with their friends by eating delicious food and taking pictures.
Various events are being held in shopping malls everywhere for the students who worked hard.

As many test takers are gathered, we should also pay attention to safety. I think I can see the cops, too.
[Journalist]
Yes, that's right.We saw more police officers and patrol cars on the streets of
than usual.
Today, about 150 police officers in charge of the school will be deployed to places where crowds are expected to gather, such as Hongdae, Gangnam Station, and Konkuk University Station.
A total of 600 people are waiting for the safety of students, from 92 areas where shopping malls are concentrated to related organizations and private organizations such as the district office.
For 13 weeks from today to February 9, after the College Scholastic Ability Test, the police will focus on youth leadership and protection activities.
Considering the increasing number of students' online use during the vacation, we plan to check four online crimes for teenagers: cyber gambling, drugs, fraud, and deepfake sex crimes.
It also announced that it will strengthen crackdowns on areas where harmful environments for youth are concentrated.
It seems to be to prevent derailment in confined spaces such as room cafes and multi-rooms.
In addition, we plan to carry out lead and protection activities in connection with institutions that manage youth in crisis, such as the Out-of-School Youth Support Center.
Test takers are enjoying the feeling of liberation from taking the CSAT with a light heart.
I hope you have a safe and enjoyable time.
