The outing of Namsan for the weekend.

Muddy, fine dust blocks the landscape.

[Ia-hyun / Yongsan-gu, Seoul: I'm just thinking about whether I'm going to come out because there are so many fine dusts. On a clear day, I can see all the mountains behind but I can't see the building today.]

Jeonju Industrial Complex, spraying water to prevent dust from spreading.

The plant has started to reduce emissions by adding more drugs to reduce pollutant emissions.

[Lee Hyung-Hwa / Jeonju Paper Team Leader: We are driving on a standard that is stronger than usual because we add about chemicals and drive at about 20ppm.]

Ultrafine dust has been showing bad levels for three days since then.

Today, ultrafine dust concentrations in Jeonbuk and Chungbuk soared to 68㎍ / ㎥, which is almost three times higher than usual, while Seoul also recorded 53㎍ / ㎥, which is twice as usual.

[Ministry of Environment and Environment (Today's Emergency Inspection Meeting): In the situation where domestic fine dust accumulates due to atmospheric congestion, foreign inflows have been aggravated and high concentrations have occurred for the first time this year, mainly in the metropolitan area and Chungcheong area.]

In the afternoon, the fine dust in most areas has been resolved, but the Ministry of Environment predicted that the southern part of Gyeonggi and the Chungcheong region will have 'bad' levels of tomorrow and the day after tomorrow.

The day after tomorrow, it will rain all over the country, starting with Honam and Jeju, and the rain will continue for three days.
