Busan 'Club' Visit Ban Extended Until June 2
Busan City Decides to Maintain Assembly Ban Administrative Order Aligned with School Attendance Period
[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Kim Yong-woo] Busan City has extended the 'gathering ban administrative order' imposed on 71 high-risk facilities, including clubs, emotional pubs, and colatecs, to prevent the local spread of the novel coronavirus infection (COVID-19) until 12:00 noon on June 2.
Busan City made this decision to block the balloon effect caused by the increase in visits to Busan by entertainment facility users and the extension of gathering bans in other cities and provinces. With the timing of elementary, middle, and high school students returning to school, it is deemed inevitable to extend the suspension of operations at entertainment facilities to fully prevent the spread of community infections.
Accordingly, 71 club-type entertainment facilities, including 14 clubs, 15 emotional pubs, and 42 colatecs, will be subject to the gathering ban administrative order until June 2. The city plans to conduct daily inspections for compliance with the administrative order over the next week in cooperation with the National Police Agency, district and county offices, and consumer monitors.
Facilities that do not comply with the administrative order will be immediately reported under the 'Infectious Disease Control and Prevention Act,' and if confirmed cases occur, strong measures such as claiming compensation for all quarantine costs related to investigation, testing, and treatment from business operators and facility users will be taken.
