Heavy rain has continued since the weekend. Up to 500mm of rain is expected to rain further in the central region by tomorrow, and further damage is feared. First, let's connect the reporters on the Paldang Dam to find out the situation.

Reporter Sang-Min Kim, what is the current discharge of the Paldang Dam?

<Reporter>

Yes, at the Paldang Dam here, 10 out of 15 water gates are still open to discharge.

Yesterday (3 days), it once climbed to 15,000 tons per second at one afternoon, but is now less than 7,000 tons per second, less than half.

At the current level of the Paldang Dam, the water level rises and falls 24.7m, but it is slightly below the 25.5m limit.

Reporter Sang-Min Kim, it's a good thing that the discharge amount of the Paldang Dam has been given.

<Reporter>

Yes, the Paldang Dam flows from the upper reaches of the Han River, that is, the Bukhan River and the Namhan River. Chuncheon and Uiam Dam, which sends water to the Bukhan River, have increased their discharge by 730 to 370 tons, respectively, 50 minutes ago.

The rain continues to rain on the Dam of Peace, upstream of the Bukhan River, but the amount of water entering the Paldang Dam is bound to increase.

However, the Han River Flood Control Center believes that the amount of discharge from the Paldang Dam has not been increased yet.

The Korea Meteorological Administration predicted that more than 500mm of heavy rain would be poured into the metropolitan area including Seoul, and Yeongseo and Chungbuk provinces by tomorrow, but if the water flowing here reaches the Hangangdaegyo Bridge in Seoul from 4 to 4 hours and a half, it will move further here. I think I should watch.
