On October 31, in the wake of today’s Halloween, crowds of young people who had a Halloween feeling with makeup, etc., flocked to the main areas of central Seoul. Tensions from quarantine authorities are rising due to concerns about whether a group infection from Itaewon will reopen in May. Connect with reporters at the scene to see what the street looks like Reporter Son Hyo-jeong! Please tell me the atmosphere of the site. Yes, the place where I am is called ‘Pocha Street’ in Hongdae, Seoul. There are dozens of pubs and clubs on this street, and people are lining up for Halloween. There is a Halloween atmosphere in every street. Skeletons and pumpkins are hung in the store, and people dressed as ghosts or characters stand out. Today is October 31st, Halloween day, where people dress up and share food to ward off evil spirits in the West. In Korea, every Halloween, young people enjoy festivals in downtown areas such as Itaewon, Hongdae, and Gangnam in Seoul. Perhaps it was due to a foot infection in Itaewon in May, and this year, not a few people visited Hongdae instead of Itaewon. Let’s hear the stories from the citizens our reporters met in person. An official from the Hongik University Merchants Association said the crowd gathered today is roughly two-fifths compared to the previous year, but the most since the crown was spread. However, there are also concerns that this Halloween could be a new catalyst for the spread of Corona 19. As a result, popular clubs in the main areas of central Seoul were immediately closed. 85 entertainment venues where guests can dance, including 22 clubs in downtown Seoul, 46 sensational bars and 17 collatechs, were voluntarily closed. In Itaewon, where the Halloween party starts every year, all five clubs were closed and 21 of the 27 sensational bars were also closed. In Hongdae, 26 Gamseong bars have been closed. Quarantine authorities are also launching a special Halloween crackdown on concerns about infection. Yes it is. After a while, the Seoul Metropolitan Government will start checking the quarantine regulations for 7 main areas of central Seoul starting at 10:00. Popular clubs and taverns are closed, but open sensitivity taverns and bars may not comply with quarantine rules. On the internet, clubs outside of Seoul, such as Suwon, opened their doors, and photos of the inside of people not wearing masks were also posted. The city of Seoul plans to crack down on restaurants in general, such as bars and pubs, due to concerns about the balloon effect in bars rather than clubs. We will focus on rules like wearing a mask and holding a table 1m away. Already yesterday, 14 of the 234 pubs and restaurants in general violated the quarantine rules during the day. Quarantine authorities plan to take administrative action against business owners who violate quarantine rules on charges of violating the Infectious Disease Prevention Act.
