On October 21, 1994, at 7:40 am, the Seongsu Bridge collapsed. The upper plate collapsed into the river between piers 10 and 11.Six vehicles, including a city bus on the bridge, crashed in

, killing 32 people and wounding 17.

Because the time when the accident occurred overlapped with the time of going to work and going to school, the sacrifices of office workers, teachers, and students were great.

The cause of the accident was poor construction and safety management. Since its completion, Seongsu Bridge has not received a single detailed safety diagnosis, and the Seoul Metropolitan Government has ignored reports of a joint happening twice.

At that time, only 20 years old bridges were inspected for safety, and the Seongsu Bridge, which is only 15 years old, was only inspected with the naked eye.

Major disasters such as the collapse of the Seongsu Bridge in 1994 and the collapse of Sampoong Department Store in 1995 resulted in systems and systems for safety, but accidents are constantly occurring.

In 1997, the Dangsan Railway Bridge, which was being demolished, collapsed, and the collapse accidents continued, including the Jeongja Bridge in Bundang-gu, Seongnam-si, and the Dorim Bodo Bridge near Sindorim Station in Seoul.

The insensitivity to safety has not disappeared, such as perfunctory safety checks, poor countermeasures, and easy responses.

30 years after the collapse of Seongsu Bridge.

We should not forget that our safety becomes dangerous while we forget it.
