Gwangju to undergo inspection of nightlife facilities during Halloween
weekend
Gwangju
City will be operating a crackdown on nightlife facilities during the Halloween
period. The inspection of facilities will be conducted on October 30th and 31st
to prevent COVID 19 transmission in the area. Our HyungJin Ro reports.
Gwangju Metropolitan City will conduct a 2-day inspection of nightlife
facilities to prevent the spread of COVID-19 from today. It is to prevent
similar cases to the mass infection spread in Itaewon in May as the
number of people using such facilities is expected to increase on Halloween
Day.
The inspection will be conducted by 43 members forming 13 inspection teams
consisting of local government officials and police officers, focusing on local
nightlife facilities including the old-city hall area, the Sangmu district, and
the Cheomdan district, where young people are expected to be concentrated.
The team will carry out intensive checks on the implementation of key
quarantine rules for 300 high-risk facilities including clubs, entertainment
bars, and karaoke rooms. The city said it will take strong measures against
businesses that violate quarantine rules, showing zero tolerance.
Gwangju City has been conducting on-site inspections of high-risk
facilities such as restaurants and cafes since May, and has so far inspected a
total of 33,800 places and found 51 violations.
The city official said related agencies and the city government will focus
all their efforts on antivirus work so that the Halloween weekend does not end
up becoming a source of a mass virus spread. It also asked young people to
refrain from organizing Halloween gatherings, as well as to wear masks and
maintain personal hygiene.
