[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters, Reporter Park Dong-wook] On the first day of the Chuseok holiday, the Chuncheon Rest Area on the Jungang Expressway heading toward Busan, managed by Korea Expressway Corporation, deployed dedicated staff at every store entrance to prepare for the increasing number of returning holiday travelers on the 30th. They maintained an emergency duty system throughout the day, including recording entry logs and conducting temperature checks.

According to the Chuncheon Rest Area toward Busan, since eating inside the building is prohibited, most customers who visited the rest area for meals purchased takeout food, had a quick snack inside their cars, and then immediately departed for their destinations. The ban on dining inside restaurants at highway rest facilities will continue throughout the Chuseok holiday until October 4th.

Not only at the stores but also at the restroom entrances, social distancing staff checked visitors' temperatures one by one before allowing entry.

A rest area official stated, "Due to the ban on seating inside the stores, we prepared many convenient takeout special menus such as instant gimbap and nostalgic old-fashioned salad bread," adding, "We are doing our best to minimize inconvenience for our customers."
