Due to dry weather and strong winds, large and small wildfires continued not only in Uljin and Gangwon-do, but also throughout the country.
A lot of people sent us a video report in hopes that it would be of some help.
Correspondent Shim Young-goo compiled it.

This is a video filmed yesterday (the 5th) in the daytime in a village in Uljin, Gyeongbuk.
[Come down here in town, the fire...
.]
In the thick of smoke, it is vivid to see how the fire ravaged the village at the foot of the mountain.
Route 7 to Jukbyeon Port reminds me of a scene from a disaster movie.
[I can't see anything, it's a disaster.
look at the smoke
I can't see ahead.] The
evolution work continued without a break.
The flames roaring along the ridgeline are difficult to catch, even with continuous water spraying.
The informant who witnessed a forest fire while passing Yeongwol, Gangwon-do this morning bursts out in mourning.
[Wow, really roaring, roaring.
Oh my God…
.]
[Informant: I thought the streetlight was visible from afar, but it turned out to be a forest fire.
I didn't think I would have come this far.]
Fortunately, there were also video reports supporting the report that the fire was caught on the mountain in Suri Mountain in Ansan, Gyeonggi-do, and that the fire from a nearby warehouse spread to the mountain.
In Pohang, North Gyeongsang Province, firecrackers were set on fire, prompting residents to put out the fire.
[Did you call 119?
called
Oh, it really doesn't go out.]
Currently, there are six fires in Uljin, Gyeongbuk, Donghae, Yeongwol, Gangneung, Daegu, and Ulsan, in Gangwon-do.
Viewers who can quickly notify SBS of the situation of wildfire damage can be made through KakaoTalk or e-mail.
