Yesterday (1st), the first day of gradual recovery, the nightlife district was full of people until dawn, even though it was Monday. There were many responses that they were happy to see the free atmosphere enjoyed in a long time, but people who broke the quarantine rules were also noticed everywhere.



Reporter Park Chan-geun reports.



<Reporter> The



first dawn when social distancing due to COVID-19 was over and business hours restrictions disappeared.



The streets are full of restaurant and pub signage lights.



It is a street in Hongdae with bars and nightlife facilities such as clubs and hunting pochas.



Even though it is a little past midnight now, the bar is full of people and the streets are crowded.



It is a strange and pleasant reaction to see a sight after a long time.



[Yeonjun Choi / Gwangmyeong-si, Gyeonggi-do, Gyeongju Oh / Siheung-si, Gyeonggi: It's been a long time since there are so many people in the bar at this time, so it's very strange, something like this. (You have to go in in the morning.)]



Self-employed people say that they took a breather because they were able to stay open until dawn.



[Lim Jeong-hee/Chicken House President: I don't say to leave at 10 o'clock, so I feel so at ease. Now that it has definitely been released, the number of groups has increased a lot. 10 people today (there were also group guests.)]



However, some citizens were drunk and broke the quarantine rules, such as walking around with their masks off or shouting.



A long line continued until late in the morning in front of the vaguely classified whether it was a general bar, a club, or an entertainment facility such as a hunting pocha.



[(They say it’s a hip-hop club….) It’s like a bar where you sit and drink alcohol.]



After entering the daily recovery process, the quarantine situation including the number of confirmed cases may suddenly worsen for the time being, so I ask you to follow the basic quarantine rules. Quarantine authorities urged.
