Dear member of KDI School,
South Korea will extend its current social distancing restrictions for two weeks, until Aug 22, as the country struggles to contain the spread of COVID-19.
□ Period: Until August 22 (Sun)
□ Social Distancing Level
- Level 4: Seoul Metropolitan Area, and Daejeon
- Level 3: Non-Metropolitan Area including Sejong
With the spread of the more transmissible Delta variant, the daily confirmed case totals in Daejeon and Sejong have been on the rise, with 50-80 cases in Daejeon and 20 in Sejong as of yesterday.
Please continue to wear your masks at all times, refrain from traveling throughout August, and refrain from long-distance travel in Korea. Thank you.
