A restaurant in Jung-gu, Seoul, shines on the 22nd, the day before the ban on gatherings of five or more people in metropolitan areas like Seoul, Gyeonggi and Incheon. News 1
Seo Ha-young, 43, who runs a restaurant in Paju, Gyeonggi-do, was moved once again by the building’s owner this month. This is because not only was the rent reduced by 50%, but it was also decided to reduce the period by three months until February next year. Seo once received a full rent exemption from the building owner in March, as the spread of the new coronavirus infection (Corona 19) increased.
Recently, the so-called ‘good building owners’ are making another impression. Interestingly, building owners who cut their rent once in March are sharing Corona 19’s pain again.
Good building owners … two “ great ” gifts
In February, in a building at Woorim Market in Mangwoobon-dong, Seoul, there is a statement saying that tenants are grateful to the owner of the building for receiving a 50% reduction in rent in February and March. Yunhap news
Seo’s restaurant neighborhood was packed with people on the weekends, and business was going so well that there was no time to rest. However, when Corona 19 arrived, the surrounding business district completely died. These days, there are more days when there are no customers.
As of day 8, step 2.5 of social distancing was implemented in the metropolitan area and from day 23 meetings of five or more people were prohibited. So Seo prepares the lunch box catering and delivers it to the customers. It was aimed at house parties and small New Years Eve parties, but even this does not seem to be easy as the decision was made to ban private gatherings with more than 5 people.
However, it is said that the rent was cut in half for the next three months, and it was a bummer. Mr. Seo said, “The owner of the building also leased to various places in the area, so it would not have been easy to decide to lower the rent.” The great gift gave me strength.
Park Mo, who runs a cafe in Seoul, said, “I am thankful for the good owner of the building.” Also received a 50% reduction in rent once in March, but once again this month, only half of the rent was paid. However, the Corona 19 spread, which was expected to improve, was not easily broken and he eventually decided to close the store sooner or later. I’m sorry I haven’t told the building owner yet.
Park said he wanted the state to surely compensate for the decisions of good building owners. He said: “The country cannot help the self-employed enough, but building owners are embracing current alternatives.”
“We also tried businesses and went through the IMF … there is no place, but we have to share the pain”
On the 16th, a shopkeeper puts up a ‘thank you for tenant’ banner in front of a restaurant in Cheongna-dong, Seo-gu, Incheon. Newsis
‘Good building owner !! I’ll share my gratitude with customers ~ ‘Recently, a large banner attached to a restaurant in Cheongna International City, Seo-gu, Incheon was a hot topic. It was said that he was grateful to the owner of the building for regretting the rent until the end of Corona 19. At the same time, he also put the phrase “I will sell 5,000 won each in the future ~ Seolleongtang, oyster soup and meat soup.”
On the 22nd, the protagonist of this banner, Ryu Min-su and Leasing-in, appeared side by side on CBS radio ‘Kim Hyun-jung’s News Show’ and told a warm backstory.
Mr. Ryu shared his story and said, “I had a hard time starting Corona 19, so I spoke to the owner of the building for help, but this time it was also the hardest time, so when I told him, he was willing to do what you want.
According to Ryu, the owner of the building granted a rent reduction earlier this year during the coronavirus outbreak and decided not to receive the rent this time.
Mr. Ryu said, “I took the help last time and raised the (rental rate) a bit more,” he said. “This time he believed and helped me. He added:” You did it for me. “
As for the reason for the banner, Ryu said, “I put it on because it would be nice if it was a chance for us to come together, and (rather) I’m getting stares from the owners of the buildings around me.”
The owner, who became a hot topic as a good building owner, said, “I don’t have a lot of space,” he said. “We also have a lot of businesses and the IMF, so I think we need to help each other as it is difficult now.”
The two also showed how they built trust with each other. Ryu said to the owner of the building, “Thank you for hearing what you asked” and “I will buy you something delicious,” and the owner replied, “How should I make money instead of something delicious?”
At the same time, the owner said, “When young people wake up and work hard, our Republic of Korea will happen,” he said. “If you work hard, the light will go out somehow.”
