In February 2020, the export value of miscellaneous textile products going by the HS Code 6307909000, which includes face masks, from South Korea to Mainland China amounted to approximately 135 million U.S. dollars. Due to the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak in the beginning of 2020, exports of face masks grew rapidly. The total export value of such products amounted to approximately 157 million U.S. dollars in February 2020, showing a year-over-year growth rate of around 2194.9 percent. Due to the high demand of masks in South Korea, the government urged producers to maximize mask productions, illegalized mask hoarding, and banned exports in the beginning of March.
