[Asia Economy Reporter Park Jong-il] Kim Seon-gap, Mayor of Gwangjin District, recently issued a message to residents asking for their cooperation amid the high possibility of a resurgence of COVID-19, following nationwide cluster infections in call centers, nursing hospitals, and other locations.


Mayor Kim addressed the residents, saying, "Please become watchdogs of the Gwangjin District quarantine system," and added, "If there are any inefficiencies or unreasonable aspects in the Gwangjin District quarantine system, please point them out."


He continued, "Thanks to the residents, the number of confirmed cases in Gwangjin District is the lowest among the 25 autonomous districts of Seoul relative to the population," and stated, "However, since there is still anxiety, if we pool our wisdom together, we can protect our families and neighbors."


As of November 6, the total number of confirmed COVID-19 cases in Gwangjin District is 145, maintaining the lowest number relative to the population among Seoul’s 25 autonomous districts.


Finally, Mayor Kim requested cooperation, saying, "Wearing a mask is the best vaccine right now," and urged, "Let’s overcome this together."


Prior to this, Mayor Kim issued the first emergency message in August when confirmed cases surged, and in September, after confirmed cases occurred in local hospitals, he released an appeal to residents to comply with quarantine rules.
