In the midst of this, as the prison guards working at the Seoul Detention Center were confirmed, the legal community also had an emergency. As the nation's largest government courthouse closed for the first time, scheduled trials were delayed, and prosecutors who frequently contact prisoners were also isolated.

This news was covered by reporter Won Jong-jin.

Seoul prison detention center A, who was accompanied by a friend who was confirmed last weekend, was confirmed at dawn on the 15th.

During his three days of normal work, Mr. A contacted 277 people, including 254 prisoners and 23 employees.

The six employees in close contact with Mr. A received a negative judgment as a result of the examination, and the remaining 271 people, including Dr. Jo Joo-bin, are in progress.

As the jail guards of Seoul Detention Center were confirmed, the courts and prosecutors also had an emergency.

Mr. A was found not to have entered the court, but as a preventive measure to prevent the 2nd and 3rd infection, the entire Seoul High Court and the Seoul Central District Court's entire courtroom was closed for the first time since its opening.

All trials have been postponed except for some urgent cases such as arrest warrants.

[Lee Il-ryul / Citizen: I haven't received any guidance yet, and I only knew acting here, so I didn't know. What once, until there is a separate contact ... I think I should actually go back.]

The courts, which have conducted disinfection and disinfection of not only the courtroom, but also the entire building, expect the trial to start normally next Monday.

As the seven detainees who contacted Mr. A were summoned to the prosecution this week and were confirmed to have been investigated, the Seoul Central District Prosecutors' Office was also put in control.

All 34 prosecutors who contacted the summoned prisoners and 30 public prosecutors who frequently contact prison detainees are also concerned about the disruption of the hearing due to self-isolation after returning home.
