[Sejong=Asia Economy Reporter Kim Hyunjung] Park Youngbeom, Vice Minister of the Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs, visited the rural guesthouse 'Yeohaenggabang Pension' located in Muju-gun, Jeollabuk-do on the 30th as part of the special measures to strengthen quarantine during the year-end and New Year holidays, to conduct an on-site inspection of the implementation of quarantine measures.


The government has been implementing special quarantine measures for the year-end and New Year holidays from the 24th of last month to the 3rd of next month to prevent the spread of the novel coronavirus infection (COVID-19). Vice Minister Park inspected the quarantine status including the 50% reservation limit on rooms at rural guesthouses, party restrictions, and the provision of disinfectants, and requested thorough cooperation in quarantine management from guesthouse operators and local governments.



Vice Minister Park listened to the difficulties faced on-site due to the implementation of quarantine measures and said, "This year-end and New Year response is very important to quickly overcome the COVID-19 crisis situation, and the government will also actively strive to support the rural tourism industry struggling due to COVID-19."
