Some South Korean churches hold Easter services online

Some South Korean churches have held their Easter services online amid the coronavirus pandemic. Seoul's Yoido Full Gospel Church, one of the biggest churches in South Korea, delivered online live streaming of its Easter service on Sunday.

A small number of masked followers attended the service broadcast via the church's website. They were seated notably apart from each other to abide by social distancing rules. Choir members also wore masks when they sang hymns. Many South Korean churches have switched to online services to support government-led efforts to stem the spread of the new coronavirus. Local media reported some churches resumed offline services to mark Easter Sunday, raising worries about new infections.

South Korea has reported 32 additional cases of the coronavirus over the past 24 hours, a continued downward trend in new infections in the country.
