What’s new: South Korea announced it would resume issuing short-term visas for travelers from China beginning Saturday, ending a 40-day suspension that began in early January, South Korea’s Yonhap News Agency reported.

Seoul made the decision after China’s latest Covid-19 wave peaked and the number of infections among Chinese arrivals dropped, Kim Sung-ho, South Korea's vice interior minister in charge of disaster and safety management said Friday, Yonhap reported.
