<Anchor> The

situation in Busan is more serious, so yesterday (23rd) there was a lot of rain accompanied by strong winds in Seoul and other metropolitan areas. Traffic control was also provided in some parts of the city, including the eastern arterial road along Jungnangcheon in Seoul. Now, let's connect with reporters on the scene.

Reporter Kim Sang-min, it seems like the rain has stopped now, but it rained quite a bit in Seoul last night.

<Reporter> In

the Seoul area, where heavy rains were in effect at 10 o'clock last night, it rained so much that the precipitation was about 120mm.

Heavy rains pour together with heavy winds, and when the newsletter was released, it seemed like it wasn't going to rain from dawn.

The place I'm on is Jangpyeong Bridge in Jungnangcheon. As the water level of Jungnangcheon rose to the heights of the rainwater, the traffic on the eastern highway from Madeleine Underground to Seongdonggyo was controlled for about 2 hours last night. Now you can see the cars coming and going freely again.

In addition to Jungnangcheon, some sections of Yangjaecheon-ro and Olympic-daero were controlled from last night, and Cheonggyecheon is still banned.

Reporter Kim, in Gyeonggi and Incheon, rain damage and strong wind damage last night, right?

<Reporter>

Rain and strong wind damage continued in the metropolitan area.

About 6:10 yesterday evening, an underground driveway in Jung-gu, Incheon, was flooded, and nine people who were isolated in the vehicle were barely rescued.

About 40 minutes later, in a building in Deokyang-gu, Goyang-si, Gyeonggi Province, the styrofoam exterior material of the building fell to the road due to the strong wind blowing with the rain.

Then, at around 7:30, the trees fell down due to strong winds in Gyeyang-gu, Incheon, and even hit nearby vehicles, but there were no casualties.

At about 8:20, the rain was pouring, and the ceiling of a passageway in an apartment in Yangchon-eup, Gimpo, was damaged.
