Forest fires in Yeongdong, Chungcheongbuk-do, Nonsan, and Hadong, Gyeongnam have also been extinguished.
Fortunately, there was no human injury in all areas due to this forest fire, but tens of hectares of forests were lost.

Red flames run long along the mountain ridge.
Firefighters and firefighters try to extinguish the fire, but strong winds and dark days make it difficult to catch the fire.
As the day dawned, the helicopter was put in and the fires that might extinguish overnight were caught.
A forest fire in Nonsan, Chungcheongnam-do was extinguished after 14 hours in dry weather.
The lights went out, but residents vividly remember the dizzying situation at the time.

A forest fire in Yeongdong, Chungbuk, also extinguished 17 hours after the outbreak.
The fire once spread over a wide area of 3km, but the strong wind weakened and the fire caught.
The residents, worried that a fire would catch on to the house, quickly evaded themselves.

Forest authorities and others believe that the fire left the embers in the ashes of the firewood boiler that residents inadvertently discarded by the wind and transferred to the mountain.

In the wildfires of Hadong-gun, Gyeongsangnam-do, 19 helicopters were intensively deployed as soon as the day was bright to extinguish the flames earlier than expected.
However, as the fire spread to three points, an evacuation order was once issued in the Hadong-eup Mukjeom Village.
Fortunately, there was no damage to people due to wildfires that occurred throughout the country, but it left a big scar that forests and dozens of forest fields were lost.
