No more 'Gangnam Style': S Korea's Covid rules demand slower workout music in gyms

To the standard restrictions such as social distancing and travel curbs, South Korea has added a requirement that gyms do not play music with higher than 120 beats per minute (bpm) during group exercises such as aerobics and spinning.
