Prime Minister Han Seong-sook held a meeting on August 18th to assess the damage caused by heavy rainfall and urged for swift action in recovery efforts. While property damage occurred due to flooded houses and roads, fortunately, there were no casualties. However, as heavy rain is expected to continue in the Chungcheong and Gangwon regions, the risk of landslides is high, prompting a call for preemptive evacuation. The Prime Minister emphasized the importance of worker safety during the recovery process.
