South Korea drops indoor mask mandate, but many continue to wear them as concerns linger
Fox News
South Korea has scrapped its mask requirement for most indoor public places. However, residents are still wearing coverings voluntarily as fears of infections linger.
Most restaurant owners and visitors in Seoul's bustling Gwanghwamun district, where government and corporate buildings are located, welcomed the new policy. But many citizens also said they will still wear masks with the pandemic not fully over.
"I'd thought it was kind of meaningless we had to put the masks on just to enter and leave a restaurant, so it's nice that has changed now," said Yoon Seok-jun, a 30-year-old office worker at Gwanghwamun.
