It is the first time since the outbreak of 297 on the 6th of last month that the number of confirmed cases has been recorded in Seoul.

Although the number of people was kept around 100 all the time, concerns became a reality as group infections continued in hospitals and moisturizing academies.

In addition, infection from family gatherings or visits during the Lunar New Year holidays is also a concern.

The concerns of the authorities that have eased quarantine regulations such as extending business hours are expected to deepen amid opposition from self-employed people who are disrupting their lives.
