South Korea has said today it recorded its largest number of daily coronavirus cases for the first time since March.

The country counted more than 500 new infections in the past 24 hours.

South Korea saw an increase after it relaxed social distancing rules last month, but on Tuesday reimposed those rules in the hardest hit areas.
