Itaewon Club 'Made' Visitor Also Confirmed Positive... Unrelated to Yongin Patient No. 66 (Update)

[Asia Economy Reporter Oh Ju-yeon] Another confirmed case of COVID-19 has occurred at a club located in Itaewon, which does not overlap with the movement path of the 'Yongin 66th' confirmed patient, who is presumed to be the first infected patient of the 'Itaewon Club' infection.

On the 11th, Seodaemun-gu, Seoul announced that a 20-year-old male resident who visited the Itaewon club 'Made' in Yongsan-gu tested positive, becoming the 21st confirmed patient in the district.

'Made' is notable because it is not one of the five Itaewon clubs (King Club, Queen, Trunk, Soho, Him) previously visited by the Yongin 66th confirmed patient.

This patient visited Made on the 2nd, was asymptomatic, visited a screening clinic on the 10th for testing, and received a positive result on the 11th.

According to the district's investigation of the patient's movement path, it was found that there was no overlap with the movement path of the Gyeonggi Yongin City 66th patient, who is considered the initial patient related to the Itaewon club infection.

Made is known as one of the popular clubs in Itaewon and is not a place frequented by a specific minority group. The occurrence of a confirmed case despite no overlap with the Yongin 66th patient's movement path makes it difficult to rule out the possibility that the COVID-19 virus is widely spreading throughout the Itaewon area.
