Concerns are likely to prolong the corona crisis, and citizens are struggling to prevent infection.

There is a growing perception that protecting my body is a way to prevent the spread of the infection as well as my family.

The number of shops that are closed voluntarily is increasing, even if the visitor has not been recently visited.

Eighty percent of the stores in Busan Jeonpo Café Street, selected by the New York Times as a world-renowned attraction, are closed voluntarily.

An official from Busan Jin-gu said, "There are some things that don't work well because of the corona infection.

There are also shops with temporary closing notices throughout the street.

There are also cases of postponing or canceling a wedding.

Kim Mo, 28, a prospective bride, who was scheduled to marry in March, recently wrote to the company's congratulatory bulletin board saying, "Thank you to everyone who congratulated you in advance. .

Another prospective bride, Lee Mo, 38, informed the company's bulletin board that he had canceled the wedding altogether and said, "We are going to have a quiet wedding with our family."

Many crowded events are postponed, and small gatherings are being canceled.

An increasing number of spontaneous 'Bangkok' families are forced to stay away from home.

Choi Mo (35), an office worker, stays home for 24 hours while working from home.

Food and other necessities are replaced by Internet orders, Choi said. "If Corona 19 is eventually spread by contact with people, shouldn't people meet?"

University student Kim, 24, decided not to date with her girlfriend for 100 days.

Mr. Kim said it was because of fear that corona 19 was spread by me and that loved ones should not be confirmed.

There is a growing number of Honbabs who are reluctant to contact with each other and have no meals alone.

At home, some citizens wear masks to prevent family contact and refrain from expressing affection for their children.

Jung Mo (43), a father of two children, said, "I usually kiss my kids when I go home, but recently I have been using my room without knowing them because I have a concern about infection." He said.

Many patrons in Busan are exposed to public buses such as city buses and urban railways, and there are also public transport evasions that many unspecified people use.

On the 28th, Busan city bus information management system statistics showed that the number of city bus passengers on weekends between 22 and 23 during the weekend was 107,6161, which is nearly 600,000, compared to 16.717 million passengers on the 15-15 weekend.

In the same period, the passengers were cut in half.

The number of passengers on the urban railway from 1,255,322 in the 15th to 16th days was reduced to 69,961, half of the 22 ~ 23 days.

Increasing anxiety about the use of public transportation has caused public authorities to release two copies of the car and to engage in a parking war every morning.

Health officials said, "In addition to the basic rules for preventing infections, such as writing masks and washing hands, avoid contact with people and avoid places with many people." "If you have symptoms such as fever, call 1339 for instructions. Should be received. "
