Reporter Hong Young-jae, is the voting going smoothly?



<Reporter>



I am at the pre-voting booth at Seoul Station.



For two days today and tomorrow, pre-voting began at 722 polling places in 21 electoral districts including Seoul and Busan, an hour ago, and although it is still a bit early, citizens are continuing to exercise their precious vote.



For pre-voting starting today, you can vote as long as you bring your ID, even outside the electoral district of the voter.



Photo ID, such as a resident registration card, passport, driver's license, or welfare card for the disabled, is required.



Voting is held until 8 pm on this election day on April 7th, but it is important to note that the pre-voting today and tomorrow will only be held from 6 am to 6 pm.

Reporter Hong, but he said there are things to be careful about because of the corona when voting in advance this time.



<Reporter>



Yes.

As quarantine measures due to Corona 19 are in progress, in order to vote, you must go through various processes.First, measure your body temperature and, if there is no abnormality in body temperature, you need to get a plastic glove after hand disinfection.



After that, you will be given an identification card, verify your identity, and receive a by-election ballot.



Corona confirmed patients are subject to voting by mail in principle. Separately, the NEC plans to operate special pre-voting booths for one day in Seoul and 1 in Busan among the life treatment centers in which the confirmed patients are hospitalized.



In the case of self-quarantine, you can vote after 8:00 pm on the 7th, the main voting day.
