[Photo] Ban on Gatherings Around the Statue of a Girl

Every Wednesday, the Wednesday Demonstration by the Justice and Memory Foundation and conservative rallies held around the Statue of Peace in front of the former Japanese Embassy are completely banned to prevent the spread of the novel coronavirus infection (COVID-19). On the 3rd, Jongno-gu in Seoul announced that gatherings such as rallies and demonstrations around the Japanese Embassy area in Jung-hak-dong, Jongno-gu, will be prohibited until the infectious disease crisis alert level 'Severe' is lifted.
