GS Home Shopping decided to temporarily close the office building as a new corona confirmer appeared among its employees.
GS Home Shopping headquarters, located in Munrae-dong, Yeongdeungpo-gu, Seoul, today (6th), said that it will close its operations from 1 pm to 6 am (8th) and carry out quarantine work.
The 20th patron, identified as a GS Home Shopping employee, worked at the head office until 30th of last month, and worked from home on 31st, with suspicious symptoms, and was confirmed yesterday (5th).
However, it is controversial that the company did not immediately inform the employees of the confirmation of the employee and proceeded to work normally.
An official in the distribution industry said, "The nature of home shopping has caused many concerns about various situations, such as interrupting live broadcasts and meetings with business partners."
During the closing period, GS Home Shopping will discontinue live broadcasting and replace it with reruns.
