KB Kookmin Card, Busan Branch Temporarily Closed

Emergency quarantine for 3 days from today to March 1
Nearby Dongnae branch designated as substitute business location

[Asia Economy Reporter Ki Ha-young] KB Kookmin Card announced on the 28th that it will temporarily close its Busan branch for three days from today until March 1st due to a confirmed case of COVID-19 in the family of an employee belonging to the Busan branch.

This measure was taken to prevent customer infection and further spread after the child of an employee working at the Busan branch was finally confirmed as a COVID-19 patient.

During the closure period, emergency disinfection and necessary measures will be carried out at the branch, and the closure period may be extended depending on the employee's confirmation status and the disinfection and inspection situation.

To minimize customer inconvenience and gaps in card-related services due to the temporary closure of the branch, the KB Kookmin Card Dongnae branch located in Suan-dong, Dongnae-gu will be operated as an alternative branch to ensure business continuity.

Separately from the branch closure, the employee whose family member was confirmed positive is undergoing quarantine and infection testing, and customers who have transactions with the branch will be informed about the temporary closure and the alternative branch.

A KB Kookmin Card official said, "This temporary closure of the Busan branch is a measure taken to prevent infection among customers and employees and to stop further spread following the confirmed case in the family of an employee belonging to the branch. We will make every effort to minimize customer inconvenience by promptly handling tasks through non-face-to-face channels and extending the operation of alternative branches if necessary."
