but a small number of people may think it's not essential.
They have the right to wear and take off masks according
to their choice. Some people may think wearing a mask is
unnecessary because of personal differences of opinion
They may think think that wearing it is good for others
and can be viewed as considerate, but if they don't want
to wear one, they shouldn’t have to.

We conducted a survey of first-year students at Myeongshin
Girls' High School, asking whether the idea of wearing a mask
was oppressive was a cultural difference or a personal difference.
Eight out of sixty students who participated in the survey thought
it was a cultural difference while 52 voted that it was a personal
difference. It is not possible to answer if it is personal or cultural difference
that leads to people think of wearing a mask as oppressive. Currently,
COVID-19 seems to be on the downturn. Isn't this the effect of people's correct
judgment? Until the day that COVID-19 no longer comes around, people around the
world must pay special attention and make an effort.
