South Korea has been one of the world`s coronavirus mitigation success stories but it has nevertheless battled persistent spikes in infections on August 16th. Most of the cases were found and reported from Seoul metropolitan city. A cluster of infections has been linked to the Sarang Jeil Church led by Jun Kwang-hoon.

High-risk facilities such as night clubs, bars and gyms are being told to close. President Moon Jae-in has vowed to crack down on the Sarang ​Jeil Church for flouting preventive measures.
