Osan City Provides Special Operating Funds to Businesses Affected by Assembly Ban Orders

[Suwon Ilbo=Reporter Seo Dong-young] Osan City will provide up to 1 million won in special operating funds to small business owners who suffered losses due to being unable to operate under COVID-19 assembly ban administrative orders.

The support targets include 154 establishments—such as entertainment bars, dance lounges, noraebang (coin karaoke), and others—that complied with assembly ban orders between May 10 and June 7.

However, businesses that violated the orders during the administrative period, those that received business suspension penalties under the Food Sanitation Act or other relevant laws, and businesses that did not comply with the orders due to closure of premises or prolonged closures are excluded from support.

The funds will be provided in the amount of up to 1 million won in local currency "Osaegjeon" depending on the period of non-operation, with a usage deadline of November 30.

Entertainment bars and dance lounges should submit applications and required documents to the Agricultural and Food Sanitation Division, noraebang to the Culture and Arts Division, and dance halls to the Safety Policy Division.
