The Bangladeshi exchange student who tested positive for COVID19 in June was discharged from hospital finally on July 24.

Jeju local government today announced this news. It took more than 5 weeks since she got infected on June 18th with 2 other companies.

So, Jeju has 7 patients of the coronavirus as of today.

A new COVID19 patient in Gwangju is confirmed to have visited Jeju before testing positive, Jeju office on Tuesday night announced.
The patient, whose rough identity is not opened yet, went to a hospital in Gwangju with symptoms of enteritis. But, he got COVID19 tests as he developed pneumonia cases, and had the result.

The problem lies with the fact that he felt fatigue and even had diarrhea which are common symptoms of COVID19. His itineraries include Jeju from June 22 to 24. He took ferries for a round trip using his car. He traveled with 4 people.

Dream Tower in Nohyeong, Jeju, is close to completion. It's scheduled to be open in July.

It looks alright at night without nothing special to see around. But it has a lot of problems to solve.

They are heavy traffic jam, water supply and sewage system, casino, room oversupply, and so on.
How will they take care of these?

Jeju on Tuesday announced that it confirmed 16th case of coronavirus infection.
The patient is a male in his 20s, who returned from North America on June 11th via Incheon International Airport.
He had no symptoms on arrival. And he had a test at the walk-thru clinic at Jeju airport.
He has been self-quarantined at parents' alone since, and had more tests on June 12th. The results were 'not decided'. So, he had more the next day, and got postive result at around 3pm.

Jeju Special Self-Governing Province on Sunday announced that its 15th coronavirus patient was discharged at about 5 pm.
This made Jeju COVID19-free in 36 days since May 8th, when No. 14 tested positive after visiting King Club in Seoul. Thr 14th patient returned home from hospital one day before the 15th.

The 14th coronavirus patient in Jeju was discharged from hospital on Friday the 12th, Jeju announced.
The patient in her 30s tested positive for COVID19 on May 9th after she visited King Club in Itaewon, Seoul on May 5th.
This made Jeju clear from the Itaewon case. And it has only 1 patient still left in treatment.

New Zealand reportedly lifts most of all its coronavirus restrictions. It's a decision after it has had no active cases recently.
As a result, people are able to go back to work, school, sports events and domestic travel. This means the beginning of the new normal.
This is the first case of a country that locked the society down. So, it will draw great attentions from the rest of the world. Hooray for Kiwis!

Korea hasn't gone through nationwide lockdown, but practiced social distancing so far. It's been quite successful containing positive cases within control.
This may lead to easing cautiousness of people, which brings worrisome increase of infection cases for last weeks.
Experts have more concerns now as all schools are open even with new rules because new possible clusters are revealed. Hot weather gives more headaches for them as wearing a face mask is getting more difficult.
For Jeju, it has been walking on thin ice. It has done pretty wonderful works preventing massive spreading from happening. The problem lies with its tourism industry.
People, who are frustrated with no chance of traveling abroad, make more visits to Jeju. This raises possibilities of coronavirus infection although Jeju has no community contagion from tourists.
I'd like to look on the bright side that Jeju will have little chance of going to the opposite direction from this fact.

Hooray for Jeju, too!

Jeju confirmed it has the 15th coronavirus case on May 30th.

She told the authority she rode to home from Jeju airport, and stayed self-quarantined till getting test.

Lotte & Shilla Duty-free shops are closing temporarily from June 1st.
According to Jejusori, the two duty-free giants made a decision to shut down until further notice. They have managed to run the business after the coronavirus outbreak. But 3 billion won(nearly 2.8 million dollars) loss every month ever since gave them no other choice.

This is second time to the new #magpietapdong and I had enough time to review the change.

1. Only #magpiebrewing
It set up the menu with only Magpie's beer. But they still serve 19(minus 1 now) kinds.
2. More Simplified Sidemenu
First, pizza or chiken; 5 pizzas and 4 sides.
Second, more reasonable price. Remember how much it wad at #magpiebluebird ???
3. Fixed Tables Out
They have now portable tables only, and tall ones, too, which you can see in Europe with ease.

It is true that they got some from both the old magpie's tapdong and Magpie Bluebird.
One thing I put an emphasis on is #auberginericottapizza that was newly introduced. It's on the top of my favourite pizza list.
