Regarding citizen protection work, according to information from the Vietnamese Embassy in Korea, recent political developments have not yet affected the Vietnamese community.

After receiving information related to the current situation in Korea, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs has directed the Vietnamese Embassy in Korea to urgently monitor related developments and immediately contact local authorities and Vietnamese associations in Korea to grasp the situation of citizens living, working and studying in the host country.

Currently, the Vietnamese Embassy is closely coordinating with Vietnamese community leaders, advising citizens to comply with regulations and instructions of local authorities to avoid large gatherings and to stay in contact with the Vietnamese diplomatic representative agency in Korea.
