As concerned, there were two more corona19 confirmers in the women's fencing national team.

A group of fellow athletes who entered the Hungarian competition on the 15th after joining the Hungarian competition with the first confirmed player yesterday, one of them turned out to have been traveling to Taean with a friend, ignoring self-containment recommendations.

The Fencing Association is a super emergency.

There are still 13 people waiting for the test results, so it's a key to see if there will be more confirmed patients.

The health of the three confirmed athletes in hospital treatment was confirmed to be good.

At the Tokyo Olympics, the national team, which had been improving their performance with the goal of three gold medals, has not been able to schedule a new training due to the increased self-isolation period even for the players who received a negative decision.

[Park Sang-young / National Fencing Epee: I received a voice, but it is a pity and anxiety because it has an incubation period.]

The association further postponed the tentative arrival period in early April.

[Cho Jong-hyeong / Fencing national team general manager: self-responsibility, sorry to colleagues. Please continue self-isolation until instructed otherwise by the association]

Jincheon Athletes' Village has strengthened its rules of entry by increasing the period of self-isolation to three weeks after entering foreign players.
