At 10:18 pm on the 24th, 2 people died when the first underground road in Choryang-dong, Choryang-dong, Busan was flooded.
Rexton vehicles were trapped while the water suddenly filled up to 2.5m in a 3.5m high underground driveway.
The dispatched firefighters rescued all 8 people from the tunnel and sent them to the hospital, among which 60 men and women in their 30s died.
Some rescuers are known to complain of hypothermia.
Underground roads are 175 meters long, so the exact number of submerged vehicles is currently unknown.
