Jeonnam Province Conducts Joint Quarantine Inspection of Delivery-Type 'Dabang' Establishments

[Muan=Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters, Reporter Yoon Jamin] Jeonnam Province recently launched a joint quarantine inspection of delivery-type 'dabang' establishments following the occurrence of COVID-19 confirmed cases in some rural fishing villages.

This measure aims to prevent further spread of COVID-19 and strengthen on-site vigilance after cases of chain infection through dabang employees engaged in coffee delivery in rural fishing villages were reported.

This inspection is a follow-up action after the 'Emergency Meeting on Dabang Quarantine Measures' held on the 30th, hosted by Jeonnam Province with participation from city and county hygiene department heads.

The inspection, conducted jointly by city and county police agencies and provincial and local governments, will be carried out as on-site checks targeting 321 delivery-type dabang establishments across the province until September 10.

The key inspection items include ▲ compliance with COVID-19 quarantine rules ▲ health checks for business owners and employees ▲ acts of receiving money or goods in exchange for time spent outside the business premises (known as 'ticket sales').

Jeonnam Province plans to apply a zero-tolerance policy for illegal activities, imposing strict measures such as prosecution and business suspension.

Kang Young-gu, Director of the Jeonnam Provincial Health and Welfare Bureau, said, “Due to the balloon effect of recent restrictions on entertainment business hours, delivery-type dabang businesses are on the rise. Since delivery-type dabang employees have wide activity ranges and many close contacts, posing a high risk of COVID-19 cluster infections, we ask for the voluntary compliance and cooperation of delivery-type dabang business owners with quarantine rules.”

Jeonnam Province requires delivery-type dabang employees to undergo COVID-19 diagnostic testing once every two weeks by September 1, and recommends that new employees must be tested within 48 hours before starting work at a dabang.
