Gunpo Sanbon Station, Gyeonggi Province, underground jjimjilbang fire...About 200 people evacuated.

Yesterday (21st), a fire broke out in a jjimjilbang on the basement floor of Minja Station in Sanbon Station, Gunpo-si, Gyeonggi-do.

The fire authorities issued the first stage of response to mobilize the competent fire department's personnel for fear of many casualties and extinguished the fire in about 30 minutes, as there are subway stations and department stores in the building that caught fire.

The fire took a man in his 40s to a hospital after inhaling smoke, and more than 200 users in the building were evacuated.

When the fire broke out, the subway also passed through Sanbon Station without stopping, but it operated normally from around 7:10 p.m. when the big fire was caught.

Fire authorities believe the fire started in the laundry room in the parking lot on the basement floor of the building, and plan to investigate the details of the fire.
