is Sohari Plant in Kia Motors, Gwangmyeong, Gyeonggi-do.

A man in his 50s in Gwangmyeong, who works at this plant, was confirmed after being tested for Corona19.

A son in his 20s who lives with Mr. A was also confirmed.

A male B in his 50s at the Sohari plant in Geumcheon-gu, Seoul, was also confirmed.

Quarantine officials believe there is no dynamic relationship between colleagues A and B.

Mr. B was previously found to have been contacted by a confirmer related to the table tennis club in Yangcheon-gu, Seoul, but the path of infection of Mr. A has not been identified.

So far, two employees have been confirmed in the factory and three in the family, and 118 colleagues who have worked with them have also been examined.

Kia Motors halted its plant operation one day yesterday (11th).

More than 4,000 people were expected to go to the factory yesterday, where around 6,000 people work.

At a language school in Gangnam, Seoul, three days ago, a confirmer came out again.

She is a woman in her 20s who has attended classes with a confirmed person, and is believed to be the third infection from Richway, a visitor from Gwanak-gu.

The health authorities also closed down the administrative welfare center in Dongtan 2-dong, Gyeonggi-do yesterday afternoon, where the father, the woman's close contact, works.
