Since midnight today, step 2.5 of social distancing has been implemented in the metropolitan area.
There were many stores that were closed due to the ban on pubs and restaurants.
Some citizens, with nowhere to go, flock to parks and convenience stores, obscuring the reinforced distance.
Reporter Won’s CEO looked around the site.

As usual, it is packed with guests until late at night.
“Now is the time to break up”
But at midnight, customers start to leave one by one and more and more stores close.
As of 0 o’clock today, this is a changed landscape as the guidelines for quarantine in the metropolitan area are updated to step 2.5.
It’s a pocha in Hongdae, Seoul.
Until a while ago, all the tables were full of customers, but now the interior of the store is empty.
The store closed after midnight.
Most of the restaurants and pubs around Gangnam Station in Seoul, which would have been crowded, were also closed.
Under the modified guidelines, restaurants and taverns will not be able to receive store guests from 9 pm to 5 am the next day.
Enhanced distancing applies for eight days from 12:00 AM today to midnight on the 6th of the following month.
The tavern, where the night business accounts for the bulk of its sales, was hit squarely.

People who suddenly had nowhere to go gathered in a nearby park or street to continue drinking.
Because it is a critical crossroads between the dissemination of Corona 19 or the truth, citizens need to actively participate in strengthening social distancing.
