The purpose of this study explores so called K-Epidemic Prevention Model based on the Korea’s experiences against the COVID-19 outbreak. As the Korea’s prevention framework has been developed from the SARS and MERS experiences, its prevention performances of the COVID-19 become one of bench-marking examples by transparent and effective prevention policies. Although the pandemic prevention framework requires more development, otherwise, the study would provide a basic data and analysis of how to be more prevention effective. Also, this study suggests 7 tasks of K-prevention model to be completed as a representative prevention system against the future disease.
