Smoke flows through the alley where the fire truck entered.

At about 1:30 in the morning, a fire broke out in the building of the Bukmun Market in Andong, Gyeongbuk.

The fire burned out in an hour after burning the first-floor restaurant building and second-floor home.

A couple in their 40s stayed on the second floor during the fire, all of which were found dead in the bathroom.

Police who checked the surrounding CCTV arrested a woman in her 60s who roamed the building during the fire.
