On Monday, a large cruise ship `` Diamond Princess '' moored off the coast of Yokohama, 41 new cases of coronavirus were reported yesterday (seven days), and three were added today.

The number of Korean passengers was 14, five more than the nine known.

The Korean Embassy Sunday explained that there was a mistake because the Japanese Foreign Ministry's response was delayed.

It is known that there are no confirmed Koreans.

The World Health Organization (WHO) says cruise ships do not need to overreact, although they are a special environment with strong viral transmission.

But the movement to warn of the arrival of cruise ships is spreading.

Taiwan decided to ban all cruise ships around the world, and Busan Port Authority also changed its existing policy of disallowing unloading only suspicious patients.

As the standards tightened, two cruise ships, which had entered Hong Kong and Taiwan on 11 and 12, respectively, gave up entry into Busan.
