It is a real-time e-news that looks at the news that has become a hot topic on the Internet overnight.
I've seen a lot of articles about pothole accidents where roads are being dug due to heavy rains since the 8th.
Yesterday (11th) at 7 am in Noryangjin, Seoul, there was an accident where a commuter bus fell into a 1m diameter pothole.
A pothole refers to a hole that occurs when the soil is lost or the lower part expands due to water seeping under the asphalt.

According to the Seoul Metropolitan Government, there were more than 1,000 potholes as of 7 am yesterday, and it is reported that more than 100 reports a day were reported in Seocho-gu, where flood damage was severe.
This kind of pitting of the road not only causes inconvenience to traffic, but also has a high possibility of leading to a major accident. Experts emphasized that 'asphalt is not permanent because it wears out over time' and 'regular maintenance is required'.
