At around 10:30 am today, a search began to find Kim Dong-sik, the 119th rescuer at the Gwangju Fire Station, who disappeared.



A professional rescue team, who had been struggling because of the danger of collapse, rushed to the scene as soon as it was concluded that some areas could be searched after a safety diagnosis.




However, about 30 minutes later, Captain Kim Dong-sik was found dead on the second basement floor of the warehouse where he had disappeared.



It was only 48 hours after the disappearance.



I jumped into the fire scene to check if there were any left, but the four juniors were sent out first and never came back.

Kim Dong-sik, a firefighter who has been working as a firefighter since 1994, has been protecting most of the fire sites for over 27 years.



Colleagues who visited the mortuary in Hanam, Gyeonggi-do, where General Kim's house is located, remembered the deceased as a blunt but responsible senior who always took the lead in the field.
