A total of 133 confirmed cases were found in unauthorized educational facilities operated by the missionary group IM Mission in Daejeon, and as they were confirmed to have roamed outside the building, there is concern about the spread of infection to local communities.
The quarantine authorities, which are identifying the first source of infection, investigated whether the serial infection was related to the confirmed BTJ National Center at the end of last year.

Almost all of the unauthorized educational facilities in Daejeon, where the outbreak occurred, were contaminated.
Viruses have been detected in 26 places, including the main building where the lodging is located and outside training centers.
The quarantine authorities are concerned about the spread in the region.
It is because there is a high possibility that there will be contacts as the confirmed people move outside, and the students who actually visited the convenience store were also confirmed.
The quarantine authorities urged residents who have contact with students or faculty members who were in unauthorized educational facilities to undergo diagnostic tests.
We are also looking into whether the outbreak is related to the BTJ Center for the Nations.
Adults receiving missionary education were admitted on the 4th, and we are paying attention to the fact that it overlaps with the period of successive cases of BTJ Center for the Nations.

When a group infection occurred in related facilities across the country, IM Mission posted a message on its homepage stating’I bow my head and apologize’.
The city of Daejeon decided to prosecute the representative of the mission by investigating legal violations such as violations of the quarantine regulations of the facility.
The police also said that they are investigating directly at the level of the Daejeon Police Agency whether or not the mission is violating.
It has also been argued that the local government and the Office of Education’s uneasy response to unauthorized educational facilities has led to the outbreak of group infection.
In fact, in June of last year, a citizen report was received for the facility in Daejeon City, but even after inspecting the site in the process of debating responsibility for crackdown, it ended with a warning.
