Cod hit by the Corona 19 direct ammunition is losing vitality. Street where hard to find people, shops full of memo that rest for a while… SBS News also gave the local atmosphere many times. Some media used the words `` ghost town '', `` zombie city '' and even `` abandoned city. ''

A little abstract fact check request came to the 'Team Team' to ask if Daegu's floating population really decreased. While I was wondering how I could check it, I tried to use the 'Population Population Data', which is often used to measure the population. However, since the latest version of the Daegu Living Population Data was last December, it was impossible to utilize the data. It would not be polite to ask for materials in Daegu, which is focusing on defense.

In the end, before the population data came out, we looked at the subway ride and drop population, which was often used to look at floating population growth. The population of Daegu is about 2.43 million as of February, and the total number of passengers who get on and off is about 800,000 subway trains a day. There are quite a few people in the metro life zone. Analyzing that trend, we can see how much the floating population has shrunk.

First of all, I received data on boarding and unloading subway stations from Daegu Urban Railway Corporation. 3 routes, 91 stations total. This is a document that records the number of people getting on and off at each station. It's based on Saturday, which is a lot of people coming out. Saturday, January 25th is not considered to be an outlier because of New Year's holiday. Patient 31, Xintiandi, was confirmed on the 18th of last month, comparing the average number of people getting on and off before and after.

<Table 1> Changes in passengers getting on and off the Daegu subway before and after February 18
As I mentioned, the average population of Daegu Subway is getting off at 800,000. By the way, there have been fewer than 180,000 people since the 31 confirmed. 77.7% less than usual. If there were five people who used the subway before the confirmation of patient 31, then there is only one person after the confirmation.

Separately analyzed by 91 stations. Five subway stations with the largest dropouts.

<Table 2> Subway Stations with Significantly Less Passengers
I said that 77.7% decreased, but the central station lost the most by 87.9%. Followed by Seomun Market Station, Daemyeong Station, Banwoldang Station, and Dongdaegu Station.

Let's analyze the characteristics of the place where movement is unusually less than usual. I have mapped these five subway stations.

Jungang-ro Station and Banwoldang Station are around Dongseong-ro, the main downtown area of ​​Daegu. To get to Dongseong-ro by subway, get off at Jungang-ro Station or Banwoldang Station. Seomun Market Station is the gateway to Seomun Market. The 500-year-old Seomun Market is said to be the litmus paper that measures the vitality of Daegu economy. That's why politicians always visit Seomun Market when they go to Daegu. The Seomun market closed last week in the aftermath of Corona 19, and the number of passengers getting on and off at Seomun Market Station was also significant.

All three are in Daegu's downtown area and are so crowded. The remarkable decline in the city center on weekends seems to reflect the anxiety of Daegu residents who have no choice but to stay away from the crowd after Daegu was hit by Corona 19.

When visiting Daegu from the outskirts, the first gate of KTX, Dongdaegu Station, is 5 times.

There is a place to note. It is the third reduced Daemyeong Station. Daemyeong-dong is not downtown. When I searched the SBS video archive because it was unexpected, there was a controversial Shinchon Daegu church near Daemyeong station.

Daemyeong Station

You will have no choice but to visit Daemyeong station where the Shincheonji Daegu Church is located. After the 31st confirmed, the quarantine activities continued. Xintiandi church members are also forced to refrain from activities, so it is analyzed that they have affected the population of getting on and off.

While it is not possible to determine exactly how much the floating population has shrunk, this statistic has been able to estimate the extent of the floating population decline. The decline was close to 80%, and the urban center of the crowd was close to 90%. It's a symbolic scene that shows how Corona 19 changed our daily lives.

The research team of Seoul National University's Graduate School of Public Health, Professor Yu Myung-sun, commissioned a Korean research and conducted a survey of 1,000 Koreans on February 25-28. 65% (average 58.1% overall) makes me feel selfless and helpless, 76.3% (average 67.4% overall), and `` wound my feelings '' To feel a significant amount of tears. '71.2% (60.5% on average). In addition to corona 19 prevention, it seems that it is time to think about the prevention of our emotional transmission.

Daegu residents, cheer up.
