<Anchor> In
Pohang, North Gyeongsang Province, which was severely damaged by typhoon 'Hinnamno', there are many places that have collapsed and were submerged in water so badly that they do not know where to start.
Yesterday (6th), our reporters looked back at the situation in the area affected by the typhoon.

Starting from Tongyeong, Masan, and Changwon, we traced the path of typhoon 'Hinnamno' from the dawn of yesterday.
Around the time we heard that the typhoon had passed to Ulsan, the road toward the Gyeongju tollgate started to get blocked, and drivers walked in the opposite direction.
[(Why? Why?) I can't get out.
Cars can't go in front!
It got clogged and I fell into the water!] It was
completely clogged and I was in a situation where I couldn't come and go.
I think we should go ahead and watch the situation together.
After walking for a long time to find the place where the congestion started, the Hyeongsan River overflows, making it difficult to tell whether it is a road or a river.
The roads were flooded and cars were unable to move.
Even though the wheel was submerged in water, it was too dizzying to attempt a turn.
Pohang, North Gyeongsang Province, suffered the most.
Cars on the road are tangled up, resembling a parking lot.
Grass and trees were tightly entangled in the gaps in the wheels.
The low-lying residential districts have turned into pearls.
[Kim Hong-jae / Nam-gu, Pohang-si, Gyeongsangbuk-do: If this is to be restored, maybe…
I do not know.
It seems to take a lot.
I can't even use my luggage.
You have to buy everything, and there is no temporary residence, and it is very difficult.] A
market alley that has turned into a floating city.
Restoration started from the place where the water fell, but it is just a bit daunting.
[Hyun Il-young / restaurant president: First of all, cleaning the floor and draining the water, can you fix the home appliances?
I think I'll have to clean it up and see the business relationship at that time.]
The cold spring that overflowed in an instant and caused a lot of damage to the people around it.
The bridge that passes over it is completely bent.
We headed to a large supermarket close to Naengcheon.
The weather has cleared up a bit now, but now the wet and accumulated dirt on the road is flying and it's hard to breathe.
If you look a little further, this is a street lamp.
However, it was uprooted and stood up, and the trees that came down from the river are still intertwined, so you can feel the power of how serious the situation was at the time of the typhoon.
Large wheels were thrown from the front door, and the parking lot of the mart was in ruins as if it had been bombed.
Our reporters climbed up about 6km along the flooded cold stream.
However, the control line has been struck like this and it is not possible to enter further, but the road is completely collapsed and cut off, and trees are uprooted and covered.
As the upstream bank of the river collapsed, the ground of the factory collapsed.
[Kwak Seong-beom / Pohang Nam-gu: If we leave it as it is now, the building itself looks like it will fall over.
The water keeps leaking underneath.]
Another factory right next door, half of the building collapsed.
It is dangerous to even go out of your way to restore it, so the day you can restore your daily life is far away.
[Factory official: I didn't know what to do because the operation was the same and the safety was at stake.
I can't do anything because the water supply and power outage are complete.]
