S. Koreans airports busier this Chuseok with the end of social distancing

김포공항 생중계...거리두기 해제 후 첫 추석으로 탑승객 몰려 Looking at the heavy traffic, a lot of people will be opting to travel by plane this Chuseok. To find out how things are going at the airport, our Kim Jung-sil is standing by at Gimpo Airport, the closest airport to Seoul, where flights are mostly domestic. Jung-sil, are there a lot of passengers? How's it looking over there at Gimpo? Well hello Devin, I am currently at the domestic terminal of Gimpo International Airport, which, as you can see, is full of people catching planes to different parts of the country. Korea Expressway Corporation said at about 1 o'clock this afternoon that if you're catching a flight at Gimpo, you need to get to the airport almost an hour and 40 minutes before your flight takes off to get checked in. During Chuseok, the airport is expected to serve more than 400-thousand passengers. Since this is the first Chuseok in the pandemic without social distancing, it's certainly busier than last year. I asked some people how they're feeling about being able to travel again. "This is the first time we've taken a plane in three years. COVID-19 has calmed down quite a bit, and people see it differently at this point, so we decided to take a plane and take our first trip as a family." "It's been hard for anyone to travel. We hope everyone can move past those times and enjoy their holiday." They do seem excited, Jung-sil. And this is a very family-oriented holiday. To give people some idea of what Chuseok is all about, could you compare it to some holidays in other countries? It's a harvest festival, which is a familiar kind of thing around the world. Right Devin, we're actually not the only ones celebrating Chuseok. Obviously, they have different names for it, but China for example, has a mid-autumn festival or Moon festival starting on Saturday. They eat mooncakes during the holiday, and as you can tell from the name of the festival, people like to get a view of the full moon as we do here in Korea. Now, Japan has something called "Obon," an occasion where people commemorate their ancestors. They eat sticky rice cake balls called "Odango" and greet their ancestors' spirits. And Devin, I am sure you are familiar with Thanksgiving in the U.S., celebrated on the fourth Thursday in November where families criss-cross the country to get together for a big meal. Now this is the time of year when all the crops are harvested and the food is delicious, so it's a bountiful holiday season in many countries. That's it from me for now, back to you Devin. Thank you Jung-sil for that report . #chuseok #airports #arirang_news 📣 Facebook :   / arirangtvnews   📣 Twitter :   / arirangtvnews   📣 Homepage : http://www.arirang.com/news/News_Inde... 2022-09-08, 17:00 (KST)
