Stars were also unable to avoid the aftermath of the novel coronavirus infection (Corona 19).
From Hong Seok-cheon, a self-employed actor in the entertainment industry, Lee Jong-seok, singer Kang Won-rae, comedian Lee Eun-hyung and Kang Jae-joon couple, and recently broadcaster Oh Jeong-yeon, many of the stores that had been run by business deterioration in succession were closed.
On the 3rd, broadcaster Oh Jeong-yeon announced the closing of the cafe, which was operated through social network service (SNS).
He has opened and operated a cafe in Sinsu-dong, Mapo-gu since May last year. It was bitter,” he said.
Actor Hong Seok-cheon revealed through several broadcasts last year that all stores operated in Itaewon were closed.
He recalled the day when the last store was closed, saying, “I have never seen anyone in Itaewon like this,” and “I felt that all the history that had been in Itaewon was cut off, so I came home alone and cried.”
Singer Kang Won-rae, who closed a bar in Itaewon last November, met with Ahn Cheol-soo, the head of the National Assembly, and appealed for the damages of self-employed people.
At that time, he said, “K-pop is the world’s number one, quarantine is last,” he said, and when the government’s quarantine policy became controversial, he said, “When I talked about the grievances of self-employed people, my emotions became intense.
It is regrettable that it is interpreted politically,” he explained.
Comedians Lee Eun-hyung and Kang Jae-joon also announced on SBS TV’s’Baek Jong-won’s Alley Restaurant’ last year that the store was closed in Yeonnam-dong, Mapo-gu.
I smashed it all and I cried.”
In addition, actors Lee Jong-seok and comedian Ki-soo Byeon also closed their stores due to Corona 19.
According to the 2020 annual employment trend released by the National Statistical Office, the number of self-employed non-wage workers among non-wage workers decreased by 165,000 from a year ago, and the number of self-employed without employees increased by 90,000.
This is analyzed because a self-employed person fired an employee due to business difficulties and operated or closed the store alone.
