Today's (2nd) special 8 o'clock news will start a little early to deliver the typhoon news in detail.

Typhoon No. 9'Mysak' is coming up toward the south coast through the east of Jeju Island at this time.

Looking at the expected route, it is expected to land in Geoje, South Gyeongsang Province, in about 5 and a half hours, so around 1 am tomorrow.

It is expected that it will pass through the Gyeongsang-do region and go up the east coast and exit toward the sea.

Our reporters are now out on the road of a typhoon, which is likely to fall in strong winds and heavy rain.

Reporters also pay more attention to safety than anything else.

From now on in a non-dangerous place, I will give you detailed news.

Then, let’s start with Jeju, where the current typhoon is close.

There is a reporter in Seogwipo.



Reporter Ha Chang-hoon of JIBS, the waves are rising very hard.



<Reporter>



Yes, I am now in Bomok Port, Seogwipo City, and as you can see behind me, the waves of the size of a house rush all day, and a strong rain and wind that makes it difficult for an adult man to stand properly realize how strong the power of this typhoon is. I'm doing it.



As this typhoon hit Jeju, damage is still being received.



This morning, as the Tianjin Port in Udo was submerged, vehicles were evacuated.



Dozens of cases of safety measures such as street lights and roof signs have been received because of the wind.



Blackout damage has also occurred throughout Jeju, and in Hallim, a vehicle while driving has even been overturned by the wind.




In particular, the Woldaecheon, Jeju-si, is concerned about flooding, causing a commotion where residents evacuated.



Damage to the green house collapsed, and major roads in the metropolitan area were also submerged, and vehicle traffic was also restricted.



Currently, the typhoon'Mysak' is heading north at a speed of about 20 km per hour from 140 km southeast of Jeju City.



So, it can be seen that the typhoon is closest to Jeju from 6 pm a little while ago.



The central air pressure is 945hpa, the maximum central wind speed is 45m per second and 162km per hour.



Typhoon warnings are still in effect throughout Jeju, and all flights to and from Jeju have been canceled except for about 20 morning departures and arrivals, and passenger ship operations have also been completely suspended.



More than 200 schools in Jeju Island also stopped attending school today.



The entrance to Hallasan Mountain was also completely controlled.



Hallasan was 260mm and 240mm of heavy rain poured into Geumak, Hallim-eup, and strong rains still continue.



In addition, there are fears that the damage radius associated with the typhoon will increase as the typhoon turns westward than expected.
