REUTERS: Apple Inc said on Thursday it would reopen its sole retail store in South Korea on Apr 18, marking it the first site to return to business after it closed all stores outside Greater China last month due to the coronavirus outbreak.

Once struggling with the first large outbreak outside China, South Korea has largely managed to bring its coronavirus cases under control without major disruptions thanks to a massive testing campaign and intensive contact tracing.“South Korea has shown great progress during the spread of COVID-19 and we’re excited to announce the re-opening of Apple Garosugil," the company said.

The iPhone manufacturer reopened all 42 of its branded stores in China in March, more than a month after they were shut in the wake of the pandemic."For customers who want to make a purchase, we have several options including ordering online for delivery or pick up in store.
