비대면이 대세...책부터 음식까지, 생활 곳곳에 '드라이브 스루'<br /><br />South Korea's been praised for its innovative use of the drive-thru model to test for the coronavirus.<br />Now, this model has been extended to lots of other everyday errands like buying fresh produce and borrowing book from the library.<br />Jang TaeHyun has this story.<br />These people are at the drive-thru to pick up their food but it's not burgers here, it's raw fish.<br />Noryangjin Fish Market started selling fish this way after their sales declined drastically because of COVID-19.<br />And customers seem to like the idea.<br />"I wouldn't have bought this if it wasn't a drive-thru. This is more convenient than I thought. I'll have them at home."<br />This is a library in Seoul.<br />The librarians have disinfected and sealed up these books, and now a car comes by and picks them up.<br />"I have a son in fifth grade, and even though he wants to read, he cannot go out. So, we're borrowing books from the drive-thru."<br />This drive-thru in the city of Seosan, Chungcheongnam-do Province is selling eco-friendly veggies.<br />These were supposed to be used for school meals, but they're left over because the opening of schools has been delayed.<br />Drivers can pay and pick up without getting out of the car.<br />"It's really convenient to get what I need without having to park. These eco-friendly vegetables are used for school meals, so I can trust them."<br />The drive-thru system is helping farmers that could have had a hard time selling their products.<br />Plus, it's a creative way to help small businesses at a time when people have to practice social distancing.<br />Jang TaeHyun, Arirang News<br />
