[Photo] Seoul City Declares 'Pause Period' Until Year-End

As the 'social distancing' level in the Seoul metropolitan area was raised to Level 2 starting at midnight on the 24th, quarantine measures were significantly strengthened, especially in multi-use facilities. Separately, the Seoul Metropolitan Government declared a 'Pause Period for 10 Million Citizens' until the end of the year and introduced measures such as enhanced Seoul-style precision quarantine for 10 major facilities within the city, a complete ban on gatherings of 10 or more people throughout Seoul, and a 20% reduction in public transportation operations after 10 p.m. The photo shows quarantine company personnel conducting disinfection at the Yeouido Transfer Center in Yeongdeungpo-gu, Seoul, on the same day. / Reporter Kim Hyun-min kimhyun81@
