Abstract
The purpose of the article is to reveal the most effective ways that helped the people of the Korean Peninsula quickly halter COVID-19 in the early 2020. To put it simply, to the author’s mind, the Koreans were saved from this terrible pandemic not only by the efficient state measures but also by long and deeply rooted Confucian self-consciousness. This philosophical and ethical teaching is accumulated verified experience of survival of a fairly small Korean nation surrounded by powerful and not always peaceful neighbors rather than pressure from above. Koreans are accustomed to think that they are able to survive only on the basis of conscious collectivist interaction, and they often have to sacrifice personal benefit to advance the common good.
