[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Choi Kyung-pil] A lion statue wearing a mask at the entrance of Wando Traditional Market is drawing attention. As COVID-19 has resurged nationwide, the Wando Traditional 5-Day Market, which had been closed since the 30th of last month, reopened on the 10th.

To encourage market visitors to wear masks, a mask was placed on the lion statue, and entry to the market is being controlled to prevent COVID-19 spread by restricting those not wearing masks.
