A car is overturned on the corner right next to the road that bends greatly.



The front of the car was shattered enough to see the engine room, and the windshield was also broken.



Today (20th) around 3:40 a.m., an accident occurred when a rental car was overturned along the coastal road near Aewol Port, Jeju City.



At that time, there were 7 people in the 5-seater car, 4 men and 3 women.



Three people died and four were seriously injured in the accident.



The car body is in a state of serious damage to the extent that the shape is unknown, but you can see how great the impact was at the time.



Police believe the vehicle was turning over while turning a curve and bumping into a rock.

Because this is a very curved road.]

According to police, 6 out of 7 people in the car were tourists staying at the guesthouse, and the other was an employee of the hotel.



In addition, it is known that only three of the six guests were in the same party, and the other three went on their own trips, met at a guesthouse and got into the accident vehicle.



Police believe the accident happened while they were traveling after drinking together at a restaurant near the guesthouse.



The police are checking the driver's drunk driving condition through blood sampling and are investigating the exact circumstances of the accident by securing nearby CCTVs.
