It is a village in Cheorwon-gun, Gangwon-do.
On the 3rd, the family gathered at the house of Mr. A in his 70s who lives here.
It was a celebration of family birthdays and grandchildren’s hundred days.
More than 10 people, including the son-in-law from Incheon, spent 4 days and 3 nights together.
The son-in-law stayed at another nearby family’s house for about three more days.
However, after that, Mr. A participated in the’one person at home’ and became a confirmed case.
Yesterday, four people, including Mr. A’s wife and in-laws, were infected one after another.
All of the son-in-law’s family who returned to Incheon were also confirmed.
It is known that some of the son-in-law’s family showed suspicious symptoms before going to Cheorwon.

Even if you are a family, you cannot gather more than 5 people if your actual residence is different.
In this case, it counts as 1 infant.
The original residence, such as weekend couples and dormitories, is the same, but it is okay to have more than 5 people temporarily separated.
It is not allowed for a group to share seats at different tables in a restaurant or to ride more than 5 people in a vehicle.
The quarantine authorities said they were again at a critical crossroads in quarantine, and repeatedly urged them to refrain from meeting during the Lunar New Year holidays.
