Koreans are very sensitive about privacy violations. No matter how much it is about Corona, the whole people will strongly protest if personal information is exposed to other citizens.
Just for the public purpose, only the route he has moved is disclosed, and there is absolutely no other infringement. The patient is called just "a number".
This is a social consensus not seen in other countries. Other European countries are misunderstanding about this. -
we koreans are willing to give information about where we have been and who we met just because we dont want to infect more people thats all
-
Great job South Korea and Korean people. Let’s fire all the guys at WHO and move their headquarters to Seoul . Tedros should be in jail. So many people have died because of this moron.

I'm Korean. There is something that foreigners misread and misreport. It's personal information. Absolute name.Address, photo, and number are not disclosed.Never. For example, "Pat 31 45 years old." That's all. Patient No. 31 caused a great deal of damage to the church, but the public never knows his personal information. Payment by credit card. If a patient lies, it is difficult to track the movements. Korea is a democratic country that brought down the president. We do not disclose personal information simply. And the key to overcoming Corona is enormous testing and masks. Always wear a mask. Mask=Not a patient. There's an incubation period. I have to wear a mask to protect others and protect myself. Because of the mask, there are no flu patients in Korea this year. Please wear a mask. If not, cover your mouth and nose somehow. Let's get through it together. Too many people are dying. Please, let's get through this together.

BBC isn't a good media at all. UK is more like North Korea policy. So many rude people and racism going on in UK. People are nasty and streets are so dirty.

South Korea never shared the privacy of the person. Thats so why Soutg Koreans trust the South Korea's Government. All other countries are not transparency at all. South Korea is the best country and people. Look at British, not even transparency at all.

PK is praying for you

Taiwan and Wuhan are provincial cities in China.
Taiwan was able to prevent Covid-19 under the guidance of China.
Taiwan and China are the center of the world. Respect us. -

Difference between s.korea and china
in China: The government surveils the people. Compulsory precaution. Lockdown
in S.Korea: The people surveil the governmrnt. Voluntary precaution. Free movement -
S.Koreans are not only very smart but also disciplined .
That's why they've become from one of the worst to one of the best countries in the world within several decades.
Kudos to s. Koreans !!! -
What about Brunei? That got no new cases almost 2 months now. Oh yeah…..media
-
Officially, Korean government can not show names on the websites because by the law they can show only age and gender. All good but that one is wrong information.

Western societies are too divided âž—

What About The GENIUS of North Korea?
watch here -
What NAMES ? Laura, you got too excited to misreport it to the center. I believe you will correct your mistake the next time you report it to the center. We identify the patient by their number, age, and gender not names. Occupation was revealed only when the government thought it was necessary to stop spreading this virus. This happened when the patient worked at the bar, singing and drinking club.

So you’ve switched your comments back on!! Highly suspicious. Just seen Islamicrepublic of the bbc is trending on Twitter! Care to answer bbc? Stick your tv license fees up your puppet masters arses! Corrupt af! People are waking up to your lies and propaganda!

BBC should release correction news with apology to Koreans and Korea goverment. BBC spreads out FAKE NEWS about personal information control in Korea. Patiens' name and occupation have never been released at all. This reporter has been in Korea for long so she cannot be confused. The very 1st duty media should do is delivering FACT. There should be correction and apology by BBC.
Korea is one of the nations where the highest standard of personal information security is adopted despite of many inconveniences. -
Fact check
Smartphone App: Only movement and age (gender) are revealed.
(address, name and other information were not disclosed).
Smartphone App was supported by Koreans, and Koreans never complain about it.
Koreans do not know the infected person at all. Only Koreans are interested in coronavirus information.
Social media violates personal privacy and personal information -
2:10 False infomation alter!
No one knows their name except Gov. -
Lmao why did they send me this
-
Too late I won my bet. Nhs are shit.

Wuhan is a provincial city in China.

So if they had the test ready before the virus happened then they knew it was coming!! HOW were they informed it was ciming
-
Great work, Great Korean..hope other countries are soon OK….
-
But the same ppl are getting sick again
-
They certainly learned their lesson from the 2015 MERS outbreak in the country.
Taiwan also learned theirs from the 2003 SARS outbreak there.
-
I have seen many Chinese here.
Why Chinese Taipei begs for attention? -
Why they don't talk about Taiwan, because Taiwan is part of China
-
This news is distorted.
We didn't know the confimed people's information.
The tracking app didn't break the privacy. -
