Even now, heavy raindrops are falling, but the news of the typhoon northward seems to rush home.

Is Seoul preemptively preparing for typhoon damage?
<Reporter>
From this afternoon, fire stations in 25 autonomous districts in Seoul have entered the first stage of response, the emergency work system.
Usually, the first stage of the fire department response is issued when an accident occurs, and it is a preemptive measure as if conscious of the damage caused by the previous heavy rain.
The government recommended private companies to adjust their working hours tomorrow, and it is known that many companies will follow them, so there is no disturbance on the way to work.
All elementary schools and kindergartens in Seoul will also be closed tomorrow, middle schools can choose between closing and distance learning, and high schools have decided to decide whether to go to school or not, at the discretion of the principal.
The metropolitan area also needs special attention as the direct impact of the typhoon may increase the damage tomorrow.
