Use of disposable cups, items prohibited in cafes, restaurants

It might be inconvenient at first but it is crucial to have it banned. It has been optional in there for ages and not a lot of people chose to actually follow the policy. I'm glad they did it. I wish that would happen in my country too.

I always boil my water first before filter it. After the water boiled, open the cover, let the hot vapor out (I feel that the toxins out with the vapor).
Also a quarter cup of boiled water to sanitize my toothbrush.
Now I think I should sanitize my filter too, maybe once a month.

Good thing! I wish the USA would start putting more restrictions on disposable plastics.

I just saw an article that for the first time micro plastics had been found in humans bloodstream☹️ I’m glad some countries are taking initiative to reduce waste and plastic usage hopefully the us considers this but who knows there’s too many crybabies💀

I wish this would be put in place in The US but knowing the people here, certain customers would start unaliving and harassing employees who tried to enforce the law 😔

I understand they want to reduce the waist. But as a tourist for me to go there it will be super inconvenient!

I get that they ban disposable plastics but paper?

[davekorus]

Honestly, this is such a useless regulation that just inconvenience people. What is the point of Korea banning plastic cups, when the wastes of China US and India going to make all of the efforts null and void? Korea government shouldn't have implemented this regulation unless they know for sure those three countries also set those types of regulations as well.

Bye bye take out orders, bye bye revenue.

I wished paper straws were used more. People need to use cloth bags for carrying items. Reduce plastic usage.
