The entrance of ChungRyeol High School in Busan was closed on Tuesday with school officials making last-minute preparations to reopen on Wednesday. South Korea will reopen high school classrooms for senior students from Wednesday as the risk of catching coronavirus has significantly reduced. The opening comes 79 days later than originally planned, during which students have taken classes online. Under the phased reopening plan, high school second graders will come to school on May 27, and the reopening is set to finish on June 8. Yonhap
