On the morning of the same day, Seo presided over an executive meeting at the county office and stated, "Early cold weather continues, with a cold wave advisory issued as the lowest temperature was recorded in mid-October."

He also mentioned measures in response to the extension of the COVID-19 social distancing level 3. He pointed out, "Although restrictions such as the number of people allowed have been eased with the extension of social distancing level 3 until the 31st, it is necessary to maintain vigilance and strictly manage quarantine guidelines," and ordered, "Please make every effort to prepare measures such as policies to revitalize the local economy in anticipation of entering the with-COVID-19 system in daily life."
