The cumulative number of COVID-19 cases in Korea surpassed 20 million on Tuesday, two years and six months after the pandemic first broke out here.It took two years and two months for infections to surpass 10 million on March 22 of this year but just four-and-a-half months to double to 20 million. Korea is among just eight countries in the world including the U.S., India and Brazil with so many cases, probably because testing has been thorough from the start.That means two out of every five Koreans have contracted coronavirus at one time, but numbers vary according to region.

If it seems quiet out there in housing market land - that's because it is. The latest Reserve Bank monthly mortgage figures show that fewer than 15,000 mortgages were issued last month. That's a record low for a June in the time this specific data has been collected - which is only since 2013. But it's a June record by some distance, beating the previous low of a little over 21,000 in that month in 2019. In June 2020 - just after the lockdown - there were nearly 22,000 mortgages issued, while in the same month a year ago there were 26,000 as the market was at that time just beginning to lose its roar a little.
