Friday starts with a friendly economy. Reporter Kwon Ae-ri. Because of the new corona, there are more and more places that are closed and closed. Even though the door is actually open, not a lot of guests look that way. It's a big deal.

<Reporter>

Yes. Of course, there are multiple facilities such as department stores and movie theaters that have been confirmed by the patrons.

In addition to GS Home Shopping, which has stopped live broadcasting, there are many places to relax in schools, daycare centers, and libraries.

Of course, there are some places that are already open. Shilla Duty Free Seoul, Jeju, and Lotte Duty Free Jeju will be open again today (7th).

It usually takes between three and four days to quarantine and reopen the door. There is virtually no manual.

It may have to be tolerated for some time that people's activities are shrinking for a while, but we can say that the place where we closed the door and thoroughly controlled and disinfected is a sanitary condition that can be used with peace of mind from the facility itself.

The board is appealing yesterday. After proper disinfection and control work, they recommended that they be used again 24 hours after finishing work. It's safe to use again after a day.

In order to minimize further spread, confirmatory lines are being released, but even if they are disinfected, there may be some psychological reluctance to use them for a while?

<Reporter>

There seems to be a lot of such hearts.

So far, so many places have been blinded. And more can come out in the future. Excessive damage in these places is now a time of concern.

If you have been exposed to the virus, supervised by the Korea Defense Association, you can be sure that the virus has been removed properly and is safe for your body.

Rather, it's a virus clean area. That's 24 hours. It will be accurate for some time, but the economic damage caused by anxiety is growing rapidly and rapidly.

Over time, the impact of shrinking consumption and activity in the country is greater than in 2015, when infections were concentrated in hospitals.

Washing your hands often and wearing a mask in an uneasy place, almost all experts tell you that ordinary citizens don't feel that activity or dread.

And in the aftermath of the new corona, our interest rates could be lower this year. I think this is coming out little by little.

<Reporter>

Yes. Depending on how much damage is expected and how much to anticipate, there is little anticipation that the rate cuts could grow again as well as in the world.

Korea responded by lowering its base rate in the next month when the crisis broke out in 2003 and SARS in 2015.

If you think so, this month is February.

But the lowered rate was 4% in SARS and 1.5% in MERS, but now our rate is already 1.25%, the lowest ever.

It's already quite low, so there are concerns about how to respond to new corona damage or how long it will work if it works.

Another debate came over this week in the Financial Monetary Commission, which decided to do this with the Bank of Korea freezing rates last month.

There were committee members last month that lowered interest rates, but those who argued for more freezing recognized the current low interest rate as a result of the recent rise in house prices, along with concerns about household debt.

In fact, most people who expect home prices to gradually stabilize in the future assume that at least interest rates will no longer be lowered.

When interest rates were frozen in mid-month, the new corona crisis was not yet a variable. But then there was an unexpected economic hitter, and now we can talk about interest rates.

Another issue we are facing with the new corona, real estate overheating, and household debt anxiety, is of interest to these and how it will be discussed in the future.
