A woman in her 50s fell 30 meters down from an ice wall in Gangwon-do and died.

This is where the fatal crash occurred last month as well.



Reporter Su-jin Yoon of G1 Broadcasting reported.



<Reporter> A



woman in her 50s who came to ride an ice wall with club members over the weekend fell 30 meters and died.



She is believed to have been wearing the wrong gear, and no one has been able to verify it properly.



This is not the first time such an accident has occurred.



At this ice rink, a man in his 50s from Gyeonggi-do also fell to death from a 30m height last month due to a broken rope.



I thought it was closed due to this accident, but an accident happened while it was running again.



Although it is Asia's largest artificial ice rink with a height of 100m, there were no safety measures such as limiting the number of climbers or employing professional personnel, as well as no management obligations.



The operating entity is a private club.



[Wonju City Official: (Ice Wall) I can't register the facility.

'Close up, Mara' is something you can do (No).

We will check everything, if everything is registered.]



A single pledge is all that the user is responsible for in the event of a fall, falling ice, or even collapse of an ice wall.



[Wonju ice rink official: Because they signed it.

You have to take responsibility for your own club.

Head ruptures and fractures are common.

Who knew I would buy it so quickly.]



The situation is similar for other ice rinks.



As it is operated by the private sector, safety measures are insufficient, and there is no supervision by administrative authorities anywhere.



[Cheolla-do A ice rink official: (Do you do any inspections?) Instead of checking, I always watch the climbers carefully and prevent the risk of accidents in advance.]



In Gangwon-do's major ice rink, where ice walls are popular, 20 people since 2015 dead or injured.
