A total of 192 South Koreans arrived home from Uzbekistan on a special flight Sunday after having been grounded there due to the coronavirus, embassy officials said. The international passengers are scheduled to return to their respective nations via South Korea, the embassy added. The South Koreans from Uzbekistan will undergo tests for the coronavirus and be quarantined for 14 days if they test negative for the virus. Choi had stayed in Uzbekistan from late March for about a month to provide its government with consultations on virus-related measures. There are plans for the plane to bring home 20,000 Korean-made coronavirus test kits, they added.
