Evidence
Nextclade calls this a sublineage of BL.1, but Usher puts it in a separate sublineage of BA.2.75.1 with the synonymous nucleotide mutation C25276A, followed by S:R346T, S:V445A, & ORF10:A28V, and then by ORF1a:L1130F (which only one sequence possessing the other three mutations lacks, possibly due to a sequencing issue). This lineage has been around for a while but has only grown much in the past month or so. The smaller sublineage with S:G482R seems to be growing more quickly than the lineage as a whole, with 17 of its 31 sequences having been uploaded in the past seven days, all from South Korea.
Another South Korean sublineage with N:Q242H has only recently appeared, with all 38 if its sequences uploaded in the past 20 days.
