<Anchor> From
today (5th), the city of Seoul is implementing a de facto curfew, allowing almost all facilities to operate only until 9pm.
Considering Seoul alone, the most confirmed record is being newly written, so it can be interpreted that the self-employed people have provided a remedy even in a difficult situation.

Seoul City, which is implementing tweezers regulation on some facilities in the second phase of social distancing, announced more strengthened quarantine measures.

Seoul will turn off the city lights after 9:00 pm, when overall economic and social activities are completed.]
Starting next Monday, all middle and high school classes in Seoul will be converted to distance classes.
The reason that the city of Seoul has placed a super-precipitation of stopping movement and activities excluding minimal economic and social activities is because the number of corona19 confirmed continues to increase even after the distancing upgrade.
The number of confirmed cases in Seoul increased from 40 to 295 in one month.
It has multiplied 7 times in a month, and the record of the most confirmed cases has been newly written.
The city of Seoul said its goal is to reduce the average number of confirmed cases per day to less than 100 within two weeks through strengthened quarantine measures.
