In COVID-19 pandemic, Korean government has disclosed the route of confirmed patients to prevent the spread of infectious diseases. Some people criticize the use of card information and CCTVs to track citizens’ routes because it is an invasion of privacy. Despite concerns about privacy violations and personal information leakage, Koreans have been easily checking the route of the confirmed patients on the Internet and even shared that information with acquaintances. Also, they followed the QR check-in system in obedience and used it to enter restaurants, cafes, and public places. It was used to track the route of infection and filter out unvaccinated people. From the perspective of American view, these behaviors of Koreans might be felt unfamiliar and even weird because it can be seen as a policy that suppresses individual freedom and violates privacy.
