In particular, the organizers conducted intensive quarantine at the event site to actively respond to the spread of COVIS-19 in the metropolitan area. Prior to rehearsal, the entire stage and the waiting room for performers were intensively and frequently disinfected, and all workers were required to check heat and use masks. In addition, we tried to create a safe viewing environment by installing a heating check booth at the entrance, disinfecting the exterior of all vehicles and performing heat checks for internal occupants.


Chang-jin Song, head of the GyeonGi Cultural Foundation, who oversees the event, said, “It was a moving performance that the outstanding artists and residents of Gyeonggi-do, who were thirsty for the stage, showed their passionate stage and high-quality viewing culture.” “With this project, we can respond to the post-corona era. We will develop various cultural contents,” he also said.
