[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Kim Yong-woo] A QR code is now required to visit public offices in Gijang-gun, Busan.

On the 20th, Gijang-gun, Busan decided to introduce an electronic entry log system (KI-Pass) at public offices including Gijang-gun Office, five eup/myeon offices, Gijang-gun Public Health Center, and Jeonggwan Health Branch to strengthen quarantine measures as COVID-19 spreads again.

On the 20th, Gijang-gun announced that as part of quarantine measures equivalent to social distancing level 3, a QR code recognition system will be implemented for entry into public offices.

The electronic entry log requires visitors to obtain a QR code via a mobile app and scan it at the entrance of the public office before entering.

Accurate visit record management through the electronic entry log can be promptly used as basic data for epidemiological investigations in case of confirmed COVID-19 cases.

This system will be applied to all civil petitioners entering public offices within Gijang-gun. Visitors without smartphones or those unable to use QR codes must fill out a manual entry log to gain access.

Until the electronic entry log system is installed, entry logs will be managed manually.

Oh Gyu-seok, the mayor of Gijang-gun, emphasized, “To protect the safety and property of 170,000 Gijang residents, quarantine administration must not collapse,” adding, “By proactively securing entry logs at public offices, the last bastion of quarantine administration, we plan to further strengthen quarantine measures not only at the offices but throughout the entire Gijang area.”
