As of the 23rd, private gatherings with more than 5 people indoors and outdoors are prohibited in the metropolitan area (Seoul, Gyeonggi and Incheon). The move will last until January 3 of next year. This is a more enforced level than the ‘ban on groups of 10 or more’ in the third stage of social distancing.
According to the Seoul Metropolitan Government, this measure prohibits all situations in which five or more people with the same purpose (limited to private purposes such as making friends) meet at the same time in the same place.
All meetings aimed at forming friendships, regardless of interior or exterior categories, are the objectives. Alumni Associations, Clubs, Outings, New Years Eve Parties, New Years Eve Parties, Online Cafes, Workplace Dinners, Workshops, Housewarming, First Birthday Parties, Sixtieth Birthday and Chilsunyeon.
Residents of the metropolitan area are prohibited from participating in meetings and events of 5 or more people (regardless of the area to which the member belongs), not only in the metropolitan area, but also in any area. If a resident of the metropolitan area meets relatives, relatives, acquaintances, etc. in a non-capital area, it is possible up to 4 people.
There are exceptions. Except in cases where people with the same residence on the green card meet as family members. In addition, unavoidable cases due to the public action of administrative and public institutions, business activity of companies, etc., and cases in which cancellation or postponement is impossible due to a fixed period of examinations and congratulations are excluded. It is allowed at level 2.5 (50 people).
For example, in accordance with relevant laws and regulations, broadcast and film production, work in workplaces such as companies and factories, regular meetings of company shareholders, labor management meetings such as wage negotiations, national assemblies and government meetings, training of military units and public support activities, emergency fire safety inspection Training, etc.
Considering the evaluation of each university, the test is allowed in a space divided by 50 or less in 2.5 levels. Weddings and funerals are also available at level 2.5, with no more than 50 people (Seoul City funeral halls have fewer than 30 people).
Multipurpose facilities used by an unspecified majority are also not subject to collective prohibition. This is because it is a behavior regulation, not a facility regulation. Currently operating multi-use facilities can operate at the current level of 2.5, but the “ban on private meetings with more than 5 people” is effective even within the facility.
The city has a strict response policy, such as imposing penalties for negligence on both business owners and users, and taking administrative action when violations are discovered.
If a confirmed person occurs due to a violation of the administrative order, the right to redress can be claimed for the charges (a fine of 3 million won or less) and treatment according to the sanctions regulations.
However, the actual crackdown is not easy and there are many voices that doubt that the quarantine effect can be achieved simply by reducing the number of personnel.
It is noted that even if you are not in a group, you can be exposed to the risk of contagion at any time if social distancing is not properly observed in daily life such as companies, public transport and restaurants.
Seoul Acting Mayor Seo Jeong-hyup appeared on CBS radio ‘Kim Hyun-jung’s News Show’ the day before and called for active participation, saying, “If citizens do not participate and participate voluntarily, we think it is difficult to achieve effectiveness only through repression. “
