Dongdaegu Station Square.

Most citizens go through the streets with masks and use public transportation.

After the Corona 19 incident, masks have become a necessity for citizens of Daegu.

[Kim Eun-se / Hwaseong-si, Gyeonggi-do: I came to Daegu after six months, but people seemed to be wearing 100% of the masks than I thought, and the citizens were protecting them.]

However, as the weather got hot, the citizens who took off the masks also noticed. is.

If you don't wear a mask in the future, you may have to pay a fine.

This is because Daegu City issued an administrative order to wear a mask when using public facilities and public transportation.

If you violate the administrative order, you may be fined up to 3 million won depending on how to prevent the infection. Citizens complain that it is too much to voluntarily punish what they need to do.

[Ahn Jong-woon / Seo-gu, Daegu: It's a part of understanding each other anyway, but if you force them legally, there's no way for economically difficult people to do it.]

The Daegu Participatory Solidarity also called for the withdrawal of the administrative order, saying it is an authoritarian administration that breaks trust with citizens.

However, there are many claims that Daegu citizens, who have already suffered a lot, should be more patient and accepting.

[Lee Chang-jin / University student: (Corona 19th) It's not over. As the end of the day has not been declared, and there are still infected people who do not know the cause, I support the mayor's comments.]

Daegu announced that it would minimize side effects through publicity and genealogy prior to the implementation on the 13th, but it was the first mask in history. There will be little confusion in the unworn administrative order.
