Paldang Dam opens 10 out of 15 water gates and continues to be discharged overnight. 

Overnight discharged more than 9,000 tons per second. From today's dawn, the discharge was reduced to 8,000 tons. 

In the afternoon of rainy days yesterday afternoon, 15,000 tons per second was flowed out, but the amount of discharge from the upstream has decreased slightly. 

However, the fact that the Paldang Dam is only about 1m from the water level is limited, so the possibility of further increase in discharge cannot be excluded. 

The water discharged from here arrives at the Hangang Bridge in Seoul in about 4 to 4 hours and a half.

Yes. It has been raining all night, and it has been raining again. 

From the evening of yesterday, the Central Countermeasures Safety Headquarters raised the crisis warning to the highest level, the highest level on the alert. 

The heavy script explained that the current rain is an unpredictable guerrilla pattern, and the rain that preceded it has weakened the ground, so even a small amount of rain can cause great damage. 

In particular, in Jinyanggyo, Namyangju-si and Yeongpyeong-gyo in Pocheon-si, flood warnings have been issued since yesterday morning. 

At the northernmost point of the Imjin River, the water level of the Pilseung Bridge is 3.1m, which is a little higher during the night, still surpassing the 1m level of evacuation. 

At 9 o'clock last night, Gyeonggi-do ordered the evacuation of residents to 16 cities, which are vulnerable to landslides, such as Yangju, Paju, Pocheon, and Yeoncheon.
