I am in the Central Disaster and Safety Countermeasure Headquarters of the Sejong Ministry of Public Administration and Security.



As the typhoon arrived and swept through Korea in earnest, the situation room of the Disaster Company headquarters became busy.



Damage is taking place in Busan and Gyeongnam, where the typhoon arrived first.



One person was found to have been injured when a vehicle fell in a strong wind in Busan, and 1,87 households and 1,640 residents in the path of typhoons such as Gyeongnam and Gyeongbuk were temporarily evacuated, but fortunately, there are no victims.



Power outages are also continuing, and power outages occurred in 17,620 households in Busan, Daegu, and Ulsan, and most of them were restored, and about 6,000 households are under restoration.



In addition, 20 street trees and traffic safety facilities were damaged in Busan and Ulsan, 14 cases of flooding and damage to houses, and 28 cases of damage to private facilities, including damage to factory signs, were tentatively counted.



Along with this, the turbine generators of units 2 and 3 at the Wolseong nuclear power plant in Gyeongbuk have been automatically shut down, and the cause is being investigated.



The Central Disaster and Safety Countermeasure Headquarters has raised the warning of the typhoon crisis from vigilance to serious, and raised the emergency response level to the highest level in three stages.



76 flights from 7 airports, including Jeju and Gimpo, were canceled, and all 91 routes of passenger ships were controlled.



In the case of railroads, one high-speed rail line, seven general lines, and one light rail line between Gimhae, Busan, were suspended.



607 trails in 21 national parks are also controlled and unavailable.



Multipurpose dams and reservoirs nationwide are also preparing for heavy rain by opening the floodgates and pre-discharging.



A serious level of warning of a landslide crisis has been issued in seven provinces nationwide, including Jeju, Busan, Ulsan, and Gangwon.



In addition to Busan and Gyeongbuk, 5,882 schools across the country along the route of typhoons are switching to remote classes or adjusting school hours to prevent damage to students.



The Central Disaster and Safety Countermeasures Headquarters decided to continue to monitor vulnerable facilities until the typhoon escapes, to quickly identify damage and to perform emergency recovery.
