Should we go to Hongdae and have a drink? 6 exciting friends, 5 confirmed-Chosun.com

Regardless of the association with the Seoul Itaewon Club, five out of every six visitors to the Hongik University pub have been confirmed by corona and have expressed concern about an additional group infection.

According to Seoul, Gyeonggi-do and Incheon-si on the 13th, a number of confirmers concentrated on the group that visited Hongdae pub’s “○○ Pocha” between the 12th and the last two days. This pub is also a famous franchise store. The confirmed party was known as a group of guests who visited this place on the night of the 7th.

First, on the 12th, A (22), a Seo-gu social worker, Incheon, was confirmed by crown. On the 13th, three other students, Suwon, Goyang and Gimpo, who went to the pub together, were confirmed by Corona. 20-year-old men living in Deungchon 2-dong, Gangseo-gu, Seoul were also included.
According to the quarantine authorities, Mr. A visited the tavern on the 7th at 7-11 pm. The group was friends with six, including the confirmed one.

In Mr. A’s case, there was no contact at the workplace because it was a vacation period from the 30th of last month. In addition, B (19), who lives in Yeonghwa-dong, Jangan-gu, Suwon-si, had suspicious symptoms such as phlegm and sore throat on the 11th and visited a screening clinic at the health center near the home on the 12th to collect samples. A woman in her 20s living in Pungmu-dong, Gimpo City, and a woman in her 20s living in Todang-dong, Goyang-si, were also confirmed. The Gimpo women were asymptomatic, but the Goyang women were reported to have a fever on 10.

The other, which has not yet been confirmed, lives in Gimpo and is being inspected by the health authorities. They are said to have nothing to do with the Itaewon club, which recently had a group infection.

A Gyeonggi-do official said, “We are verifying the details of the number of people in Seoul and Mapo-gu. Health authorities are carrying out an epidemiological investigation of the bar in question. In addition, they are capturing those who contacted the confirmers, such as the analysis of security cameras in stores that day.
