From tomorrow, the lowered distance step will be applied?
[기자]
Starting tomorrow, the government has lowered the current distance by one step.
The metropolitan area goes down to step 2, and the non-metropolitan area goes down to step 1.5.
The opening hours of restaurants and cafes in the metropolitan area are also delayed by 1 hour from 9 pm to 10 pm.
Even entertainment facilities nationwide, which were closed for more than 10 days, are allowed to open until 10pm.
However, the ban on meetings of more than 5 people, which is the core of the quarantine rules, remains the same.
However, immediate family members have decided to make an exception.
This is because the third epidemic is still alive, especially because there is a possibility of spreading foreign mutant viruses.
Throughout this week, the government is expected to be keen on the effects of the Lunar New Year holiday infection and easing distance.
So far, the Ministry of Social Affairs has delivered it.
