[Asia Economy Reporter Park Jong-il] Seongdong-gu (Mayor Jung Won-oh) is making every effort to establish an emergency response system for COVID-19 for Chinese international students returning from China in time for the March semester opening season.

At 11 a.m. on the 24th, ten mobile isolation units were installed in the large parking lot behind Hanyang University Student Union to temporarily isolate Chinese international students showing symptoms.

Symptomatic individuals will wait here for approximately 10 hours until their test results are confirmed.

Additionally, the district operates a dedicated shuttle bus between Incheon International Airport and Hanyang University to transport students separately and conducts intensive monitoring for 14 days after their arrival.

Currently, the ‘Seongdong-gu Hanyang University International Student Support Call Center’ has been established at Seongdong-gu Office and Hanyang University, staffed by 12 Chinese-speaking call center personnel at Seongdong-gu Office and 11 at Hanyang University, who check symptoms and provide prevention guidance twice daily to Chinese international students.

Jung Won-oh, Mayor of Seongdong-gu, said, “With the large influx of Chinese international students during the semester opening season, residents’ anxiety is increasing. We will make every effort to block community transmission and prevent spread through close cooperation with Hanyang University.”
