A Chinese student was confirmed for the first time two days ago in Gangneung, Gangwon-do.

The Ministry of Education said that international students from China have been systematically managing them by refusing to go out for two weeks.

After the first confirmation of the Chinese student's confirmation, there has been a lot of tension, especially in college.

[Kim Nam-wook / Chung-Ang University 4th grade: I live in this neighborhood, but our school has a lot of Chinese students. The school is very crowded.]

Many colleges have delayed the opening of one to two weeks, but over 37,000 of the country's Chinese students are already in the country.

The Ministry of Education has devised a plan to follow the guidelines for preventing infectious diseases such as refraining from going out for 14 days after entering the country.

Is it kept in reality? The day after the reporter met, Chinese students told me they visited a market and household goods store near the university the day after they entered the country and visited a convenience store from time to time.

[Chinese international student A (entry on February 15): (In school) You never told me not to go out.]

[Chinese international student B (entry on February 15): I went to a convenience store near my house once every two days. Stay home, how do you eat? We have to eat every day.]

The limitation of airport quarantine is also pointed out as a problem.

[Park Hong-jun / Chairman of Seoul City Medical Association: Young people (like college students) can have a relatively asymptomatic infection because they have a very good immunity. In that case, the airport cannot be quarantined. .]

The Ministry of Education agreed to refrain from leaving international students in both countries on the 28th of last month, but there are concerns that it was a late measure.
