The barrier to the construction site in Sinsa-dong, Seoul, is falling precariously.

The strong wind collapsed and hit the truck.

Two parked trucks were damaged.

In Seongnam-si, Gyeonggi-do, a strong wind knocked down a subway sign and collided with a bus.

A female passenger in her 70s was taken to a hospital with a forehead injury when the window of the bus was broken.

In Janghang-dong, Goyang-si, Gyeonggi-do, a report was received that the sign on the outer wall of the shopping mall was likely to fall.

The fire department explained that the parts holding the sign appeared to have fallen due to strong winds.

[Firefighting official: We called in a work truck, controlled it to prevent people from passing by, and took safety measures.]

In Jeollabuk-do, where a strong wind warning was issued, damage to facilities continued.

In Iksan, Jeollabuk-do, a streetlight collapsed due to strong winds, and in Gunsan, a fire brigade was dispatched after reports of some of the building signs falling.

Untimely hail also poured throughout the country.

Hail was observed in Wonju, Gangwon-do, Gunpo, Uiwang, and Paju, but no property or casualties were reported.
