More than 700 mm of rain fell for three days, mainly in the northern mountains of Gangwon-do.
According to today's (25th) Gangwon Regional Meteorological Administration, precipitation from 3:00 to 4:00 pm on the 23rd is Hyangnobong 772㎜, Misiyeong 723㎜, Jinbuyeong 655.8㎜, Seoraksan 559.5㎜, Daegwallyeong 227.6㎜, Taebaek 131.9㎜, etc.
The rain suddenly pours around the mountainous area, and water suddenly blows and the valleys, such as Seoraksan, change quickly like a river.
Swimming is prohibited in major beaches on the east coast, such as Gangneung Gyeongpo Beach because of the high waves.
To reduce the heavy rain damage, the East Coast local governments built tents and parasols installed on the beach in one place, and the heavy rains caused heavy soil to recover emergency damage.
The Korea Meteorological Administration predicted that by tomorrow (26th), it would rain more than 20 to 60 mm in the Yeongdong area and 80 mm in the northern mountains of Gangwon.
The Korea Meteorological Administration strongly advised that "there are so many rains in Yeongdong area of Gangwon that rivers and valleys can blow up, so campers should take special care."
