South Korea will remain under the current social distancing levels for another two weeks from Monday. 

Seoul and nearby Gyeonggi Province and Incheon will remain under the highest Level Four, while many other parts of the nation will be placed under Level Three until August 22. 

In the capital region, a ban on private gatherings will remain limited to four people until 6 p.m., after which the cap will drop down to two people. The cap is set at four in non-capital regions regardless of time. 

Vaccinated people and immediate family members who do not live together are also subject to the ban.  

Public events and street rallies are prohibited, while up to 49 people including friends are allowed to attend weddings or funerals. A restriction on only allowing family members and relatives was lifted. 

Nightlife venues, including clubs and bars, must shut down, while other multipurpose facilities, such as restaurants and coffee shops, can only stay open until 10 p.m.
