Dear Ajou GSIS Students,

Due to an excessive number of new confirmed cases, there has been an order that made it mandatory for
residents and visitors in Gyeonggi Province to wear face masks indoors and outdoors as of
August 16, 2020.

Please note that we are somewhat in a serious level of COVID-19 pandemic that the Government is asking our
cooperation to follow the given guidelines for our safety and health.
Gyeonggi residents and visitors will only be allowed to take their masks off in exceptional cases, such as while
having meals.
Those who break the rule may face fines of up to 3 million won (US$2,500) for violating the Infectious Disease
Control and Prevention Act.

The government also decided to place tougher restrictions on gatherings at religious facilities, including churches
and temples.
  • No face-to-face gatherings or events other than regular service/mass
  • No loud singing/praying/talking during regular service/mass
  • No meals
  • Ensure mask wearing
  • Maintain 2m distancing among facility users
In coffee shops and restaurants, it is difficult to keep the masks on while eating or drinking, and there is a high risk
of droplet transmission while having a conversation.
Therefore, we ask you to follow the below guideline at the coffee shops and restaurants.
  • Utilize takeout or delivery rather than dining in
  • If dining in, 
    • avoid rush hours
    • keep mask on except while eating or drinking
    • minimize duration of stay in venue
Also, twelve types of high-risk facilities such as clubs, karaoke, buffets, and PC rooms as well as indoor national
and public facilities will be banned from operation.
There will be no face-to-face events, provisions of food and group eating at those facilities(The singing of hymns
will be restricted and collective prayer will be banned).

Furthermore, we are sharing some of the recent major cases of church-related mass infection below.
If you have been to the below mentioned churches, please visit the nearest health center or/and call 1339 to get
