He continued, “Through thorough epidemiological investigations and subsequent measures, please make a little more effort so that residents can quickly return to their daily lives,” and stressed, “We must strengthen the quarantine system with active participation from residents, including refraining from visiting the metropolitan area or unnecessary outings and using the Safe Call service.”

In addition, Mayor Seo requested strict attention to be paid to urgent tasks such as preventing heat-related illnesses and water accidents during the peak heat, improving integrity, and increasing the population.

Mayor Seo said, “With the Expo just 46 days away, each department needs to prepare and inspect related facilities and contents thoroughly,” and urged, “Although the situation with COVID-19 is difficult, please do your best to make the Expo a healing gift for residents and visitors.”
