On day 6, when the first confirmed person was released, face-to-face worship was possible before step 2.5 of social distancing was applied.

Quarantine authorities reportedly focused on verifying the appearance of the worship service on Sundays the 6th and 29th of last month.

After the service on the 6th, it was confirmed that some members of the church ate at a small restaurant outside.

In addition, the church choir practice was also held and the practice room window was found to be small and there was no ventilation available.
