<Anchor> The



number of new confirmed cases is a problem, but it is more worrisome that the number of fatal cases is over 200 a day as the number of patients with severe cases exceeds 1,000 every day.

As a result, the funeral home is currently saturated to the extent that the body has to be left unattended for a week and the smell has to be removed with a textile deodorizer.



Correspondent Han Seong-hee.



<Reporter> This



is a funeral hall in Goyang-si, Gyeonggi-do.



A white cloth is covered over the stacked coffins.



In another room, a coffin is placed on top of the coffin.



There are only about 10 visible ones.



There are six refrigerators for body storage in this funeral home.



The informant claimed that the funeral home continued to receive bodies even though there were no empty refrigerators.



It means that the body is placed in a coffin and left at room temperature for several days.



[Informant A: Because of greed for money, you can think of the deceased as just dealing with things.

(Is it left like that for a few days?) Basic 7 days?

8 days.]



In accordance with relevant laws and regulations, the temperature of the mortuary must be maintained below 4 degrees.



However, when left at room temperature, the body quickly decomposes.



[Informant B: I see that there are too many.

It smelled so bad while I was salting, I asked, 'Did a dead body come in here?' and it's not a dead body.] The



staff said that they sprayed fabric deodorant to get rid of the smell.



[Informant A: We just have that peek we usually talk about, and that's it.

When removing the coffin or putting it in.] The



bereaved family does not know this.



[Informant A: Bereaved families are now observing the immigration.

(Then) They told me to say something like 'It's an empty house' or 'I'm going home today.']



The funeral home did not answer the reporter's questions.



[(I would like to ask for a position.) I decline the interview, please go back.

(Do you admit that (the fact that the body was left unattended)?) To die.]



It is argued that some funeral homes will be similar even if they differ in degree.



[Funeral Director: If you do not do this now, the funeral home cannot be operated.

Now, probably 80-90% of all funeral homes will do that.

People from outside cannot enter, there (the mortuary).] In



the funeral riots caused by Corona, the death that should be respected is being damaged.
