In China, which has a 'zero corona' policy, saying that it will not allow even a single confirmed person, strange things are happening as lockdown measures continue throughout the city.



Children are often separated from their parents when they are stuck in a mart while shopping, are trapped in a store after going to buy clothes, or a large shopping mall is suddenly closed.



There were times when I went out on a blind date and got locked up in the other person's house.



Corona testing is beyond imagination.



If there is even one confirmed person in the apartment, the entire apartment is sealed and PCR tests are performed on all residents.



People aren't the only ones getting tested for coronavirus.



We inspect everything from dining chairs to bicycles.



Once the lockdown is in place, food is a concern.



They run, fight, fly, get food, and even lose their children while hoarding.



There have been cases of miscarriages in mothers due to lack of timely treatment.

Why is the Chinese government insisting on zero corona so unreasonably? It's because of the Beijing Olympics, which will be held next month.



They are tightening the reins of quarantine, reinforcing their will to successfully host the Winter Olympics.



The quarantine authorities are risking their lives to prevent the spread of Omicron, such as locking down buildings.



There is another reason why the Chinese leadership is obsessed with zero corona.



This is because after the Winter Olympics, the 20th Party Congress will officially be held, where the third consecutive term of Chinese President Xi Jinping will be officially decided.



[Jun-Young Kang / Director, Center for International and Regional Studies, Hankuk University of Foreign Studies: Re-extension of the Xi Jinping leadership In this regard, there is another thought that we should show a coordinated movement.

We will not tolerate any attempt to deviate from the party-centered rule.]



This is to use this as an opportunity to show off the leadership of the Communist Party and President Xi Jinping internally and externally by succeeding in the prevention of the corona virus.



Can China's zero-coronavirus, which uses personal sacrifices as collateral, succeed?
