This is a weekly report on the COVID-19 situation in the Republic of Korea based on the confirmed cases reported through
the Integrated System to Korea Centers for Disease Control and Prevention according to the INFECTIOUS DISEASE CONTROL AND PREVENTION ACT and based on the epidemiological investigation by central and local health authorities. As of June 27, 2020, there were 12,732 confirmed cases of COVID-19, and including 282 deaths. Confirmed cases were reported in all 17 provinces/cities in Korea, with the highest number of cases from Daegu, Gyeongbuk, Seoul, and Gyeonggi. The results indicated that, by gender, women accounted for a slightly higher proportion (57.6%) of total confirmed cases than men. And, by age the median age was 44 years old (range: 0 to 104 years old).
The main infectious paths confirmed by epidemiological investigations showed several major clusters related to COVID-19.
Of the total cases, the proportion of imported cases was 12.2%; 40.9% were Shincheonji (and related); 38.1% are small
clusters and contacts of confirmed cases (other than Shincheonji); and 8.8% are currently under investigation as per
