Yeongsaenggyo religious facility Seungri Altar in Bucheon, Gyeonggi-do.

There was an order to prohibit the gathering.

This is because 20 people here were collectively infected with Corona 19.

At the same time, 33 people, including instructors and graduates, were confirmed at a tutoring academy, which is a 30-minute drive away.

The link of group infection is presumed to be Mr. A, an academy instructor and a member of the Victory Altar.

The first confirmed person was a student attending a tutoring academy, but it is because Mr. A, who was living in the male dormitory of the Seungri Altar, first showed symptoms from the 3rd.

Even though A showed suspicious symptoms, he went to the academy without being tested, and it turned out that he was tested late only after the student was confirmed on the 7th.

Bucheon City has issued an order to prohibit gathering at the Seungri Altar, and is inspecting over 270 people, including clothing companies in the same building as the dormitory, contacts and visitors identified at the academy.

Visitors to related facilities that were not recorded were also voluntarily requested to undergo diagnostic tests.

However, there are concerns about spreading to another facility, such as being confirmed that two school students attended different academies together.

The city of Bucheon said it had received a list of 139 visitors from the Seungri Altar.

He also explained that it is checking if there were any additional contacts or visitors that may have been made by tracking the location of the mobile phone.
