Today (9th) at 1:28 a.m., after a 3.7 magnitude earthquake occurred in the waters of Ganghwa-gun, Incheon, reports poured in from the metropolitan area to SBS.
Sim Ji-wan, who lives in a villa in Dobong-gu, Seoul, more than 100 kilometers from the epicenter, said, "I felt the house shake immediately after the disaster text message arrived, and the window frame made a sound from friction."
Kim Young-min, who lives in a detached house in Geumcheon-gu, Seoul, also reported that "I was lying on the bed and looking at my smartphone on my cell phone before going to sleep, and the bed swayed from side to side."
Yoo Il-hee, who lives on the 11th floor of an apartment in Ilsandong-gu, Goyang-si, Gyeonggi-do, said, "I was lying down to sleep, and the building shook with a 'thud'." .
In various online communities, experiences such as "I thought the subway passed under my house" or "I was surprised when I lay down and watch a movie because the apartment was shaken about 6 times" came up one after another.
An official from the situation room at the Incheon Fire Headquarters said in a phone call with SBS, "There have been no reports of earthquake-related damage."
It has been 70 days since the earthquake of magnitude 4.1 in Goesan County, North Chungcheong Province on October 29 last year that an earthquake of magnitude 3.5 or higher occurred on the Korean Peninsula and in the surrounding waters.
