[Asia Economy Reporter Choi Saeng-hye] As small-scale group infections of the novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19) continue, the government has decided to designate door-to-door sales companies, logistics centers, large academies, and buffet restaurants as high-risk facilities.


Prime Minister Chung Sye-kyun announced on the 21st at the Central Disaster and Safety Countermeasures Headquarters meeting held at the Government Seoul Office that these will be added to the existing high-risk facilities such as entertainment bars, where compliance with quarantine rules is mandatory.



The newly designated high-risk facilities will be required to comply with quarantine rules starting from 6 p.m. on the 23rd. Currently, the high-risk facilities include eight types of businesses such as entertainment bars, karaoke rooms, hunting pubs, emotional pubs, and danran pubs.
