Officials confirmed at least 231 of the country's 433 cases are linked to outbreaks at a secretive branch of the Shincheonji Church of Jesus in Daegu. Shincheonji translates as &quot;new heaven and land&quot; and the cult is drawing global attention after being linked to a spike in coronavirus infections across the nation. Cult leader Lee Man-Hee, now aged 88, labelled the deadly outbreak &quot;the devil's deed&quot; and &quot;a test of faith&quot; in a message sent on an internal app.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Lee and Shincheonji have steadfastly denied the accusation. More than 5,200 of South Korea’s 13,672 cases have been linked to the church. Its branch in the southern city of Daegu became the biggest cluster after infections spiked in late February. Senior Health Ministry official Yoon Tae-ho said the spread of the coronavirus is stabilizing in the Seoul area and other major cities.

Under the restrictions church meetings are banned and nightclubs, buffets and cyber cafes are closed.
