As you can see, even if the step 2 of reinforced distancing is implemented, restaurants and cafes are inevitably worried about the nature of eating and drinking. The number of confirmed patients related to Starbucks in Paju, Gyeonggi-do has increased, and so far, 50 people have been counted.

Reporter Han Ji-yeon looked at the restaurants and cafes to see if the quarantine regulations were being followed.

Customers can't hide their anxiety as confirmation continues at famous cafes like Starbucks.

[Jang Bo-hee/Seoul Yangcheon-gu: I usually do take-out (packaging) a lot. Can you go there for a while and get out soon? It doesn't go well.]

Some cafes have become busy with fewer visitors.

[Cafe store staff: I didn't do that until yesterday, but after the news came out, I don't think I came here because of that (Corona 19). (Today) I think it has decreased a lot. About 30%?]

Starbucks, where confirmed cases came out, installed transparent partitions on tables in major stores in Seoul.

Some customers slightly lower and raise their masks only when drinking, but these rules are not always followed.

Not only when eating and drinking, but also when ordering or talking, you'll often find yourself without a mask.

[Cafe customer: (a customer) He didn't wear a mask, but the clerk was also embarrassed, so he just took the order. I was a little bit more constricted and surprised because I didn't follow those rules.]

Half of the people who went to the cafe for meetings didn't wear masks.

Even if they wore a mask, they often wore it on their chin.

Several people shared the food in a single bowl.

Cafes and restaurants first need to apply distance between tables, but it is not easy to decide unless they are affiliated with a large company.

[Restaurant owner: I can't help it when (guests) come in at once. Customers are crowded in (it's hard to distance.)

Experts pointed out that in cafes and restaurants, you should stay short while wearing health masks such as KF80 or KF94, and consider delivery or packaging first.
