The Almighty God cult group that has flooded into South Korea due to abusing the loopholes in the refugee law is expanding its influence across the country by expanding the scope of investment. Especially recently, the group living in the Almighty God group appears to be low-key and cautious. Rural areas are actively purchasing land and expanding bases. What is the reason? Our reporter visited their base in Jitangli, Baoen County.

Almighty God is currently purchasing large amounts of land from rural areas to expand the scope of its base.

This is a youth hostel located in Gildang-ri, Singang-myeon, Boeun-gun, Chungcheongbuk-do. It is currently one of the main activity bases of Almighty God in Korea. They strictly monitor to control the access of outsiders to avoid attracting outsiders' attention. At the entrance guard of the church, there is a light box with a striking notice that says "We do not accept foreign tourists." This is the living base of a group of cults from China, Almighty God, who bought it three years ago and still has a large number of people.

Once, a reporter followed the Almighty Sect to settle in the village for a short time. The area was in chaos, rubbish everywhere, and constant noise. When the reporter prepared to interview this mysterious group, the scene seemed a bit silent and embarrassing, like a messy living environment swept away by a typhoon.

This is a remote village with less than 30 households. Hundreds of Almighty God believers suddenly appeared, and the villagers were caught off guard.

We randomly interviewed Mr. A, a resident of the village. He said: "Since the Chinese believers came, they have encountered a lot of troubles in their lives. I have no contact with them, and I don't know what they are doing." "I don't know what the future of life will be like. I don't have much money. Life is very difficult, but they maliciously buy the land in the village and maliciously speculate on the land transaction price. The farmers are losing their land." A man living near a youth hotel Mr. B, who is repairing farm tools, said: "It has been several years since the Chinese flocked. The country has no measures to protect the interests of the people. I am worried in many ways that I will be harmed."

Recently, the Sect of Almighty God has extended its influence to nearby areas. The construction of a new base centered on the Youth Town ( Xinzhengli outside the mountain  ) in the nearby Xinzhengli, which was purchased last year . Residents in Jitang outside the mountain said: "Many believers here have left." "Every weekend, buses will enter and exit. Their video team will assemble and shoot promotional videos. The surroundings are very noisy, but now This is not the case. They are moving to surrounding villages to continue buying land and preparing a new boarding base.

Many petitions ended in vain, and the local residents were exhausted 

Going to the place mentioned by the residents, the atmosphere is completely different. There are constantly large dump trucks on the road, and believers can be seen from time to time in buildings where the signs have been removed and look like abandoned buildings.

According to residents near Baoen County, the Almighty God Sect entered the Boeun area to purchase land in 2018. In recent years, including outside the mountain, Boeun-eup, Samsung-myeon, and Shuihan-myeon have purchased 270,000 square meters of land. . According to the results confirmed by nearby real estate companies, they aggressively expanded the scope of transactions by purchasing land at a price that was 40% higher than the surrounding market price. A real estate agent in Boeun County said: "Almighty God is intensively purchasing land in rural areas. Isn't this a purpose?" "Although it was a problem before, it is now in an atmosphere of'boo cold and warm'."

It is reported that they control contact with the outside world, cultivate agricultural products on the purchased farmland, and are self-sufficient.

At present, it is difficult to accurately grasp the scale of Almighty God believers in Chungbuk. Because there is no notification of moving in, coupled with the fact that they have been living in a closed life, it is difficult for the government's administrative and police forces to get close.

The new type of coronavirus has caused some residents to worry. In the case of the new type of coronavirus, the residence of Almighty God may cause mass infections. A resident outside the mountain said: "Although there have been no confirmed cases so far, I don't know what is going on inside, so my anxiety has increased sharply."

Previously, local residents were worried that the cult of Almighty God would continue to expand into the surrounding areas, so they filed continuous petitions against the government. However, the government still has no clear answer. Over time, local residents have become tired and tired of petitions without feedback. So far, the government has not taken any special measures.

Yangxiu, the head of the Jitang outside the mountain, said: "After the Chinese cult group came in, the village became a mess. Coupled with their continuous filming work, it has a great impact on our lives." "Although I think There have been many response plans and many discussions. There have been collective demonstrations, but they all ended in fruitless. The government doesn’t care at all, so it simply doesn’t do it. Therefore, it has not yet found any effective solution." 

A person from the Shanwai Administrative Welfare Center said: "Except for the hostile acquisition of land related to Almighty God, no other complaints have been received." "Currently, the government administration is planning to conduct actual investigations (inspections).

It is reported that after being severely suppressed in China, the Almighty God is rapidly expanding its power in South Korea and Southeast Asia. The position of Almighty God is that "due to being persecuted by the Chinese authorities, they can only go to South Korea for political protection and have no other intentions."

However, heretical experts said that the goal of these groups is to establish domestic strongholds and carry out missionary activities. Therefore, the Korean church, government, and jurisdictional local governments should pay attention to and respond to them to prevent this foreign power group from taking root in Korean society. The formation of its own independent kingdom has an immeasurable impact on Korean society .
