Busan, a man who leaned on a railing next to a sidewalk fell 9 meters down with the railing.
Fortunately, there was no serious injury because the slope was connected to the bottom, but the police decided to look into whether or not the construction was unsuccessful.

It is next to Oncheoncheon Stream at Myeongryun Station on the Busan Metro.
A man in his 30s was put on a stretcher.
It's 9 meters below the sidewalk.
The railing broke and fell together.
It rolled along the slope and fell, and fortunately avoided major injuries.
[Jung Sang-su/Dongnae Fire Station Rescue Team Leader: I think there was no serious injuries because the slopes leading to the hot springs and the ground were formed.] This
is a railing that is 3 meters long and 1.3 meters high.
While drunk, he leaned his arms and back against a railing, and it appears to have fallen.
That is, he couldn't bear the weight of a single adult man weighing about 80 kg.
The jurisdiction of Dongnae-gu Office is not even able to determine when and who made the railing.
[Busan Dongnae-gu Office official: (the railing) seems old.
It is not known when and who installed it.]
In May last year, a taxi struck a railing and fell, killing a passenger, and the driver was seriously injured.
As accidents follow the pedestrian railing, it is being pointed out whether it is a safety blind spot.
[Changsik Jeong/Professor of Department of Civil Engineering, Dongeui University: (accident railings) should be installed on roadways, lawns, or other borders for separation, but not on railings for safety.] The
police determine the cause of the accident and whether or not it was unsuccessful, along with the bureaucracy
.
We are going to investigate.
