Restoration work is still in full swing in places affected by the two-day heavy snow.

The traditional market in Uiwang, which suffered heavy snow today, is still undergoing restoration work.
Merchants who were unable to operate on weekends due to heavy snowfall in
complained of frustration.

Let's connect the reporters on the spot. Reporter Yoon Taein!

Yes, it is at Goblin Market in Uiwang City, Gyeonggi Province.

That's where the tent roof collapsed, right? It's been two days since the accident, how is the situation there?

[Reporter]
Behind me, workers using equipment are now working on removing roof tent structures.

Because the collapsed steel structures are heavy, workers are working by cutting pipes one by one.

The roof pillar was tilted to one side, and it was almost impossible to enter until the structure was properly demolished.

The market roof tent collapsed the day before (28th) when the heavy snow was in full swing.

Since the evening before, merchants have said they have been preparing for heavy snow by sweeping away snow that can be swept away and setting up more places to build columns,

But in the end, he couldn't beat the weight of the snow and collapsed.

Fortunately, no one was injured in this accident.

Currently, not only merchants but also Uiwang City are working on restoration work together, but

is only getting rid of the tent, pulling out the remains of the steel structure.

Merchants who can't open on the weekend will be frustrated, right?

[Reporter]
Yes, normal on-site sales are virtually impossible this weekend as well.

Merchants also expressed their frustration as many customers visited on weekends rather than weekdays.

Some merchants came out to the market to see the situation.

Let's hear from the merchant on the market today.

[Yoo Hospital / Uiwang Dokkaebi Market Merchant: Weekend business is bigger than weekday business for a few days... Customers coming from outside from the park or something like this are important places.]

How long will the recovery continue?

[Reporter]
Our reporters came to the scene from around sunrise to take a look.

Merchants who were not allowed to operate on-site, but had to deliver to outside companies, could also be seen pulling up on the shoulder and carrying goods as soon as possible to finish the delivery date.

As such, we hope that the market will recover as soon as possible and be able to reopen.

The merchant association made a restoration plan through a meeting yesterday, and plans to remove all roof structures by Monday at the latest, and then rebuild the reinforcement.

So far, I am YTN Yoon Tae-in at Goblin Market in Uiwang City, Gyeonggi Province.
