[Photo] Entertainment Business Owners Protesting on Mapo Bridge

Officials from the Korea Entertainment Food Service Association are protesting on Mayap Bridge in Seoul on the 10th, urging the withdrawal of the ban on gatherings at entertainment bars. They stated, "Since the government’s ban on gatherings was enforced from March last year, when COVID-19 prevention measures were strengthened, we have been unable to operate for a total of 10 months." They added, "As a result, more than 90% of entertainment business owners, who are small-scale operators relying on their livelihoods, are facing dire situations such as eviction lawsuits from building owners." / Reporter Kim Hyun-min kimhyun81@
