It was difficult to see spring flowers in the past due to the corona, but this time, the cherry blossom road in Yunjung-ro, Yeouido is open for the first time in 3 years.

A reporter is on the scene.



Reporter Shin Yong-shik, starting tomorrow (the 9th), I can still see a lot of citizens.



<Reporter>



Yes, I am now on the Cherry Blossom Road in Yunjung-ro, Yeouido.



Before the opening tomorrow, citizens flocked to enjoy the spring spirit while controlling vehicles from noon today.



[Jo Eun-jin / Gangdong-gu, Seoul: I was worried that the cherry blossoms were late this year, so I was worried that they wouldn't open, but I think it will be a good memory to take pictures with friends well.]



The place where vehicle traffic is completely controlled until noon on the 18th is the Seogang Bridge. It is a 1.7km section of Cherry Blossom Road from the southern end to the intersection of the National Assembly Hall.



Electric scooters and bicycles are also prohibited.



As it is open until 10 pm on both weekdays and weekends, police patrols are also strengthened.

Since it is a place where a lot of people always gather, there must be a lot of things to be careful about when it comes to quarantine.



<Reporter>



Yes, during the Yunjungno Cherry Blossom Road Festival in 2019, before Corona, about 5.23 million people gathered.



The quarantine authorities are also nervous as tens of thousands of visitors are expected to visit this time as well.



'Infection prevention and control posts' will be installed throughout the cherry blossom road, and about 3,000 people will be put in until the 18th for quarantine and order maintenance.



Government officials and volunteers are guiding or cracking down on practices such as eating or not fully wearing a mask while walking on the street.



A fence was installed in the middle of the road, so this time, only one-way traffic is allowed on the right.



The goal is to reduce the number of people walking in front of each other as much as possible for quarantine.
