A pop-up replica set of Netflix's original Korean series "Squid Game," which was set up at Itaewon Station in central Seoul, closed down earlier than scheduled due to mounting concerns over a spike in COVID-19 infections here.
용산구 이태원역에 설치됐던 넷플릭스 오리지널 시리즈 ‘오징어게임' 세트장이 국내 코로나19 감염 급증에 따른 우려가 증가해 예정보다 일찍 폐쇄됐다.


According to Seoul Metro, the pop-up set, operated by Netflix Korea, closed on Friday after drawing large crowds on the back of the growing popularity of the Korean drama.
서울교통공사에 따르면 넷플릭스코리아가 운영했던 이 팝업 세트장은 드라마 인기에 힘입어 방문객이 몰리자 금요일 폐쇄했다.


The set was scheduled to be open until Sunday.
이 세트장은 일요일까지 개장하기로 예정돼 있었다.


"The operator of the set made the decision as concerns over violations of social distancing rules have been raised," a Seoul Metro official said.
서울교통공사 관계자는 "사회적 거리두기와 같은 방역 수칙 위반에 대한 우려가 증가해 세트장 운영진이 폐쇄 결정을 내렸다"고 밝혔다.


The pop-up set opened on Sept. 5 to promote "Squid Game," offering visitors a glimpse of the survival games played by 456 people in the drama.
이 세트장은 드라마 ‘오징어게임'에서 홍보하기 위해 지난 9월 5일 개장됐는데, 방문객들은 드라마에서 456명이 하는 서바이벌 게임의 단면을 이 곳에서 경험할 수 있다.


The 9-episode series, which was released on Sept. 17 and has been available in 83 countries, beat the popular British series, "Sex Education."
9월 17일 공개된 9부작 드라마 ‘오징어게임'은 세계 83개국에서 시청이 가능하며 인기 영국 드라마 ‘오티스의 비밀 상담소'를 제쳤다.


"Squid Game" centers on the story of 456 people playing life-or-death games on an uninhabited island to win 45.6 billion won ($38.7 million) in prize money.
'오징어게임'은 무인도에서 456억원의 상금을 걸고 서바이벌 게임을 하는 456명의 이야기를 다룬다.


Korea reported a fresh high of 3,273 COVID-19 infections, Friday, amid mounting concerns that millions of people traveling across the country during the Chuseok holiday had fueled a greater spread of the virus.
연휴 동안 국내 이동으로 인해 바이러스의 전파에 박차를 가했다는 우려가 증가하는 가운데 금요일 국내 확진자 수는 3,273명을 기록했다.
