Document: The South Korean experience with COVID-19 provides evidence that epidemics can be suppressed with less extreme measures than those taken by China [18] . It demonstrates the necessity of prompt identification and isolation of cases in preventing further spread [3, 4, 5] . Our analysis reveals potential roles of social distancing in mitigating the COVID-19 epidemic in South Korea. Even though social distancing alone may not be able to fully prevent the spread of the disease, its ability to flatten the epidemic curve (cf. Fig. 2B ,D) reduces burden for healthcare system and provides time to plan for the future [19] .
