[Photo] Social Distancing 'Gatherings of 6 People · Business Until 9 PM' Applied for 3 Weeks... Until Next Month 6

The government will implement social distancing measures for three weeks from the 17th of this month to the 6th of next month, easing the private gathering limit from the current 4 people to 6 people. However, the operating hours restriction for restaurants and cafes, limited to 9 PM, will remain in place. Although the spread of the COVID-19 Omicron variant continues, the private gathering limit has been relaxed considering the opposition from self-employed business owners. The photo shows a notice about the capacity limit posted at a restaurant in downtown Seoul on the 14th, when the government announced these social distancing adjustments. / Reporter Kim Hyun-min kimhyun81@
