The snow this time is a wet snow with a lot of moisture.

Garages and trees that could not overcome the weight collapsed, causing a series of damage.

I'm connecting with a reporter for more information.

Reporter Yuh-hyun, please tell us about the accident.

Yes, first of all, there was an accident at around 8:40 a.m. today (27th).

A man in his 80s who was working on snow removal was laid down when a tent-type garage collapsed at a farmhouse in Okcheon-myeon, Yangpyeong-gun, Gyeonggi-do.

Mr. A was taken to the hospital in cardiac arrest, but he died.

Police believe the garage roof collapsed because it couldn't bear the weight of the snow and are investigating the details of the accident.

Around the same time, a tree fell at an apartment in Jangheung-myeon, Yangju-si, Gyeonggi-do.

It hit near the entrance of the apartment and above the parked vehicle,

Fortunately, no one was hurt.

It is near Hwanghak Intersection in Jung-gu, Seoul around 8:30 this morning.

It's a road lined with street trees near the crossing.

A tree branch broke in the heavy snow and hit the sidewalk.

Fortunately, no one was hurt, but citizens suffered from inconvenience in traffic as a large branch blocked the sidewalk.

First, the accident occurred near Namyangju Tunnel on the Guri Pocheon Expressway in Namyangju, Gyeonggi Province at around 6:10 a.m. today (27th).

A total of six vehicles slipped on the snow.

Two drivers complained of shoulder and back pain, but they were not taken to the hospital because the injury was not severe.

Fire officials explained that after the first solo accident of a 1-ton truck, another truck hit the SUV that stopped suddenly, and three vehicles, including the van, collided one after another.

Police believe a series of accidents occurred when cars that were coming out of the tunnel slipped into the snow.
