국회, 셧다운 해제...오늘부터 의사일정 재개

South Korea's National Assembly has reopened following days of closure after a photo journalist who attended a ruling Democratic Party meeting tested positive for COVID-19 last Wednesday.
Beginning Monday, sub-committees will resume screening, while the 21st National Assembly's first regular session will begin on Tuesday as scheduled.
Transparent dividers have been set up at the main chamber as it's difficult for the 3-hundred lawmakers to keep a healthy distance from each other.
During September,... it also plans to implement a video-conference system that will enable non-face-to-face meetings.
