The shelter is equipped with conveniences such as heaters and chairs for day laborers, as well as a variety of beverages including coffee and tea.

Yu Seong-hoon, Mayor of Geumcheon-gu, said, “Since the area around the dawn labor market tends to have a dense gathering of unspecified many people at certain times, thorough quarantine management such as encouraging dispersed waiting is necessary. We hope residents will participate responsibly to support the convenience and quarantine management for day laborers.”
