COVID-19 and the Hotel Industry  

​

I am a man in my late 40s. I have been working in the hotel industry for 24 years. The COVID-19 pandemic that dragged on for three years created the worst-case scenario for the hotel industry.

​

Before COVID-19, more than 80% of guests at major hotels in Seoul were tourists visiting from abroad. So, many hotels faced difficulties when foreigners were denied entry during the pandemic. There was even a very tough time when hotels were limited to a maximum occupancy rate of 66%.

​

Thankfully, as of the second quarter of 2022, the hotel industry has begun to show signs of recovery. Foreign guests who had been absent for a while started to trickle back. As a result, I have been using English more and more often. This is the driving force that makes me study "입트영" diligently every day.

​
