Supporters who stand up and hug and cheer
Candidates who cannot be welcomed or turned away
Even if hundreds of people gather in the campaign, it is not a violation of the quarantine guidelines.

With the start of a full-fledged campaign, candidates’ worries are deepening. This is because there are situations where it is difficult to keep distance as crowds gather at the campaign site. Although it is not legally violating the quarantine guidelines, the general public who has kept their distance for more than a year does not look at the bustling campaign scene.
The candidates are happy to express their positive support, such as a passionate supporter asking for a handshake or even a hug or a request for a group “selfie,” but they are very affirmed that it will adversely affect the COVID-19 quarantine. Although the quarantine authorities have said that campaign campaigns are not violating the quarantine guidelines, it is difficult because the infection can actually spread regardless of whether it is violated, and it could be a pretext for an attack on the opposing candidate’s side. There is no way to ignore the supporters who rush with’fansym’ in the lead even if they want to greet or greet the quarantine authorities as recommended by the quarantine authorities.

The breathtaking appearance of the candidates lining up between Junsu’s skinship and distance toward the’voicing heart’ is being captured countless times at the scene of the heated campaign. Park Young-sun, the Democratic Party candidate Oh Se-hoon, and People’s Strength candidate Oh Se-hoon, who continued the campaign for the second day on the 26th, never took off a mask and made a fist greeting with supporters with a gloved hand. However, it was often crowded and tangled in a moment, and I had to smile in front of the supporters who were cheering loudly.
At the scene of the intensive campaign of both party candidates who also held the inauguration ceremony on the 25th, a crowd of about 500 people each gathered. He wore a mask, but it was difficult to find a distance from the crowd watching the event by sitting or standing.
On this day, Candidate Oh showed off’unification of opposition’ in front of Daehanmun Gate in Deoksugung Palace in Jung-gu, joining hands with National Assembly Representative Ahn Chul-soo. A large number of former and current lawmakers, such as Kim Jong-in, chairman of the hypertrophy committee and candidate Na Gyeong-won, attended, and hundreds of supporters who stood closely together praised ‘Oh Se-hoon’ aloud with applause.
Some of the office workers who passed by just in time glanced at the streetcar and said, “We told us not to gather more than 5 people, and they said, “They are in a group.” It was a criticism of the politicians who could not even keep distance while challenging the position to determine the quarantine guidelines.

On that day, about 30 members of the ruling party attended and lined up in front of the gas vehicle at the park in Guro Digital Complex in Guro-gu, Seoul. I had to do some movement. The moderator appealed for’to keep a distance, but when the candidate entered, the supporters called for’Park Young-seon’.
The quarantine authorities have already interpreted that it is possible for candidates, activists, and supporters to gather in one place because the official schedule of the party is not a’private meeting’ that is banned from gathering more than 5 people.
Even if there is no legal problem, the people watching it are only uneasy. This is because there is a situation where the social distancing principle, which the government has emphasized and appealed to the public, is collapsing in front of’political actions’. However, as with the 21st general election last year, the quarantine authorities are advising each candidate camp to’avoid close physical contact’. As of 0 o’clock on the 26th, 494 new cases of Corona 19 were recorded daily.
