Of these, 13 were contacted by Chungnam 778, and all were confirmed as visitors to the premiere music hall in Choeup-dong, Busanjin-gu.

The number of patients declined from late October to early November, and then it is not limited to specific regions or facilities, and there are many sporadically small-scale confirmed cases throughout Busan. In Busan, there were many cases of patients in February, which occurred in a group at Oncheon church, and in October, in a group at Haetrak Nursing Hospital.

When the city of Busan was concerned about the rapid increase in confirmed cases, the first step of social distancing decided to apply the quarantine rules according to step 1.5. The main idea is to issue an administrative order limiting the number of people to less than 100 for assemblies and demonstrations on the 24th, and limit admission to all public facilities to 50%. Public officials decided to cancel or postpone meetings, events, dinners and meetings applying the quarantine rules equivalent to the second stage of distancing.
Busan City Deputy Mayor Park Seong-hoon said: “Group infections in daily life such as family and acquaintances gatherings and work life continue.”
