A 46-year-old man residing in Dogok 1-dong, Gangnam-gu, is the husband of a confirmed case who tested positive yesterday. After their daughter, an international student, was confirmed positive on March 27, he was self-quarantining and developed a fever on the 6th. He underwent a specimen test at the Gangnam-gu Public Health Center on the 7th and was confirmed positive on the morning of the 8th.

Gangnam-gu, in cooperation with Seoul City and the Gangnam-gu Public Health Center, conducted a joint on-site investigation of the entertainment establishment where a 36-year-old female confirmed case recently worked. They identified 116 customers and employees who had contact with her, all of whom were instructed to self-quarantine. The establishment was disinfected and closed.
Furthermore, following Seoul City's administrative order banning gatherings at entertainment facilities, Gangnam and Suseo Police Stations formed a joint inspection team to regularly check compliance. Businesses found violating the order will face legal action.
