'2020 Auto Salon Week' Postponed to December Due to COVID-19

[Asia Economy Reporter Kiho Sung] The country's representative automotive aftermarket specialized exhibition, '2020 Auto Salon Week,' has been postponed to December due to the spread of COVID-19 infections in the metropolitan area.

The 2020 Auto Salon Week Secretariat announced on the 15th that the exhibition, originally scheduled to be held on the 15th of next month at KINTEX in Goyang-si, Gyeonggi-do, has been inevitably postponed to December 10 (Thu) to 13 (Sun).

The Secretariat explained that this decision was made to prioritize the safety of visitors and participating companies amid the recent resurgence of COVID-19. They also added that they will thoroughly prepare and operate quarantine measures such as a joint quarantine system, social distancing from the entrance of the exhibition hall, and temperature checks.

As a result, the 2020 Auto Salon Week will hold a winter exhibition for the first time since its inception in 2003. With the change in the season, it will proceed under the concept of 'Winter Edition,' planning to expand the exhibition of winter-related items such as automotive winter supplies. Additionally, due to the schedule delay, additional applications from participating companies are being accepted.

Meanwhile, the '2020 Auto Salon Week' is hosted by the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport and the Ministry of Trade, Industry and Energy, and organized by Seoul Messe Co., Ltd. and KINTEX Co., Ltd., marking its 17th edition this year.
