Some of the building pylons are broken, and the concrete around the reinforced concrete is also broken down.
The floor of the building is divided everywhere.
It is the inside of the 15-storey office building in Samsung-dong, Gangnam-gu, Seoul.
As a result of the resident's declaration that a crack was found on the pillar, the city of Seoul made an urgent inspection from 3 pm yesterday (November 11), and the building was diagnosed as a collapse risk.
The central column section was broken by more than 20%, and structural problems were found in the reinforcing bars in the columns.
The city immediately notified building managers and residents to refrain from building.

Most residents have left the building, but some have not received eviction.

The underground first floor entertainment business was still operating normally.
[Building residents: I know the contents, but the building collapses, it collapses, people are afraid, and there are no formalities for eviction.]
The Seoul Metropolitan Government plans to classify the building as an E grade, which is the lowest safety grade, and to designate it as three facilities requiring safety management.
If classified as a 3-class facility, the city may order safety measures such as demolition and evacuation of residents.
Park Won-soon, the mayor of Seoul, ordered to conduct a precise diagnosis promptly to find out the scene last night and to decide whether to dismantle or force evictions.
