The whole world is suffering because of the coronavirus.
It is time to eat delicious and nutritious food! Today's menu is Yukkejan! !!
Energy can be improved by putting rice in soup and eating it with a side dish.
There are only three side dishes (from the left are bean sprouts, Kaktogi and white kimchi) and all were very delicious.

Infected 15,039 (+166 from yesterday)
Release of quarantine 13,901 (+38 from yesterday)
305 dead (+0 from yesterday)

Of the 166 new infections nationwide, 11 are newcomers. There were 74 new infections in Seoul. Crisis warnings are serious, and'securing distance while living' is Level 2 (Seoul standard).
In addition, many infected people from the church caused an emergency. It is said that some churches sang songs without wearing masks and had dinner together. In addition, today, with the arrival of Korea's Gwangju, various groups have been held to protest the government, raising the sense of tension. It is known that among the religious organizations that held the meeting, the number of people applied for was 100, and with permission, it was known that more than 5000 people actually gathered, which is a problem.
We've managed to get this far with everyone's efforts, so I hope the church and the group will work together.

Korea has been raining for weeks. There are many places in Japan where water damage is severe. Last week's rain caused Seoul's Hangang Park to fall into the water, damaging several roads. It seems that commuting on weekdays took 2-3 times longer than usual.
It's a tough summer with water damage on top of the coronavirus.

It is Jung Chun-dong Taekwondo under Namsan. It is the oldest bakery in Seoul, which opened in 1946.
The old-fashioned flavors are popular, such as roll cakes with apple jam, Govan castella, and butter cream bread, but Monaca ice cream is the best seller. Full of vanilla ice cream made from fresh high-quality milk! It's delicious whenever you eat! We did remodeling in 2015, but the interior of the 1970s-80s style that made use of old items is also a highlight.

In Seoul, two new infections occurred. Crisis warning is serious, and'securing distance while living' is Level 2 (Seoul standard). This week, 9 new infections occurred from the camping ground and received attention. Camping was popular because it was thought to be safer than indoors, but it was an incident that announced that the outdoor facilities were also unsafe. The fact that 18 people from 6 families were eating together while camping together without wearing masks alerted everyone who listened to the news.

It is a track of Eitouura Station. There was a clear sky after the rain stopped.
The Yeongdeungpo area originally had a small steel factory and food stalls in front of the station, so it was not a beautiful image. However, since the time square where two department stores and malls are connected has been established, it has become a place loved by many people.

Gwanghwamun Square is still busy with heavy traffic today. Gyeongbokgung is closed, but the main gate, Gwanghwamun, is still protected by Sungmun. Mormon also wears a mask!
