"Hurry up and go home".Subway conditions on the way home after heavy snow.

[Anchor]
The roads here and there are frozen again today, so you should be careful on your way home from work.

As such, there are many people who use public transportation.

I'm connecting the reporter who is on the scene. Reporter Facial expression!

It's already crowded.

[Reporter]
It's 6 p.m., and as you can see behind me, many citizens are on their way home from work.The

subway safety personnel are also coming out earlier than usual to help with traffic.

I've heard the stories of citizens heading home from here an hour ago.

Most of them thought it would be faster to leave their own cars and use public transportation, so they left the car and said they came out early to avoid rush hour.

Let's hear the citizen's story firsthand.

[Hwang Tae-young / Nowon-gu, Seoul: I came out about an hour earlier than usual. The snow is piled up a lot.]

[Lee Joo-hyun / Guro-gu, Seoul: It's slippery because it snows a lot, and I left a little early because the train might be delayed just in case.]

Have you increased the number of flights on public transportation than usual?

[Reporter]
As many citizens use public transportation, more cars are operated than usual.

In order to help people get off work smoothly, Korail said it plans to operate 10 more metropolitan trains, including Line 1 and Gyeongui Jungang Line.

The Seoul Metropolitan Government has lowered the emergency response level of the Disaster and Safety Countermeasures Headquarters to one level from 11 a.m. today and Gyeonggi Province to 1 p.m. today.

However, as there are a series of reports of damage caused by heavy snow, they said they will start snow removal from evening to night in preparation for emergency situations.

The Seoul Metropolitan Government said it plans to deploy 6,000 personnel and 1,190 snow removal equipment to respond initially to prevent any inconvenience to citizens on their way home from work.

He also said that it would be better to use public transportation as much as possible on the way to and from work as snow is expected to continue overnight.

He also added that when driving, ensure enough safety distance to be careful of slipping due to road freezing.
