– In particular, it warned of dangers for leisure facilities such as ski resorts, which are booming in winter. Prime Minister Jung also said, “I am worried that leisure facilities in winter will be a catalyst for the spread of Corona 19 due to the recent outbreak of group infection at ski resorts. There are many places where there are queues and crowds, so distance is difficult to keep properly. “It is a facility that is vulnerable to infection because employees often work on accommodation and board together.”

In particular, Prime Minister Jung said, “Recently, the so-called’season room’, which is a shared accommodation, is operating near ski resorts, and the risk of infection is very high due to the nature of an unspecified number of people in a narrow space. It is pointed out that it is a blind spot. The Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism, please consult with the quarantine authorities and come up with effective quarantine measures as soon as possible.”
