<Anchor> The place that

health authorities are most concerned about is Sarangjeil Church in Seoul. It is known that many members of the church participated in the Gwanghwamun assembly yesterday (15th) even though they were in self-isolation. There are also signs that the confirmation tax in the metropolitan area will lead to the provinces.

This is Choi Ho-won.

Many members of Sarangjeil Church, including Pastor Kwang-Hoon Jeon, have been notified of corona 19 testing and self-isolation.

However, yesterday, a large number of conservative groups took part in Seoul's Gwanghwamun conservative group rally, and the former pastor spoke without wearing a mask.

[Pastor Jeon Kwang-hun/Pastor (Yesterday, Gwanghwamun speech): I look fine like this, but I don't even get a fever. I have no symptoms of the disease (Corona 19). However, it was notified that Pastor Kwang-Hoon Jeon was selected as a quarantine target.]

Group infections in the metropolitan area, including Sarangjeil Church, are already spreading little by little to the provinces.

First of all, in the case of Sarangjeil Church, confirmed cases have occurred in Chuncheon, Gangwon-do, Seosan, and Cheonan, Chungnam.

In Gwangju, five additional local residents were confirmed through a confirmed person who visited a cafe in Paju, Gyeonggi-do.

A man living in Seoul, who was on vacation in Gangwon-do, was confirmed after visiting a relative in Daegu.

In Hanam, Gyeonggi-do, one student at Poongsan High School was confirmed for Woori Jeil Church in Yongin.

The Gyeonggi-do Office of Education is discussing with the Ministry of Education a plan to convert classes in schools in Yongin and Yangpyeong, Gyeonggi Province, where Corona 19 is rapidly increasing, to online classes for two weeks.

Also, starting today, the second step of social distancing in the metropolitan area is applied, and indoor gatherings of 50 or more people are prohibited.

The operation of high-risk facilities is also suspended, and sports events such as professional baseball are again held without spectators.
