[Anchor]
This time, we will listen to the fire situation of the factory in Wanggil-dong, Incheon, by connecting the informant who sent us the video. Kwon Oh-sung, you're the informant. Sir, are you out?

[Originality]
Hello.


[Anchor]
I heard that you filmed the fire with a drone first today. First of all, how did you witness the fire?

[Originality]
I was driving by there, and the smoke was so big that I went there because it was nearby.

[Anchor]
You told me that you were shooting with a drone because there was a lot of smoke, but I don't think you were in a situation because the fire was big, how did you come to think of shooting with a drone?

[Originality]
I happen to have a drone in my car. So I should take a picture and report it to YTN. That's why I took it.

[Anchor]
First of all, thank you for sending us to YTN. Looking at the video you just sent me, I could see that the acting was amazing. Were you able to feel the smoke rising a lot while watching this smoke in person? While filming the smoke blooming at the time, did you see it and feel it?

[Originality]
The smoke was too dark and too strong. It's really high.

[Anchor]
Was it windy?

[Originality]
The wind blew so much to the west that even if two helicopters worked to extinguish it, the water flew to the west, making it difficult to extinguish it.

[Anchor]
If you look at the screen, you can see a lot of black smoke coming out, so please explain what it was like at the time.

[Originality]
At that time, it seemed that a lot of fires had spread to nearby factory areas. And there were intermittent toxic gases and explosions.

[Anchor]
Did you hear the explosion a little loud? How was it?

[Originality]
It kept on making moderate sounds.

[Anchor]
Was the place you filmed yourself close enough to drink gas or smoke? How was it?

[Kwon Oseong]
It was quite close. Fortunately, it's windy to the west, so the residential complex is in the east. The damage to the residential complex seemed to be less because of the wind.

[Anchor]
If you look at the video, it's factories. It looks very dense, is that where the factories are gathered?

[Originality]
It's an industrial park.

[Anchor]
Did it seem like there was a possibility that the fire would spread to other factories around?

[Originality]
When I looked at the video, it was not a large factory, but a structure where several small ones were concentrated. I think that's why it spread a lot. to various factories Fire.

[Anchor]
In fact, I think it was more dangerous because there was a lot of strong winds, but was the smell of smoke and burning severe?

[Originality]
The smell of smoke burning was also acrid, like toxic gas, because it was in the factory area.

[Anchor]
Then, you said that it is an area where factories are concentrated from where you are now, do you know what factories are gathered?

[Originality]
I'm not sure about that. It looked like wood and some kind of industrial park.

[Anchor]
Then, there was our report earlier, but about 90 residents evacuated. Did you see many people evacuate while filming?

[Originality]
The factory area has no area where residents live, so I haven't seen many residents evacuate.

[Anchor]
Then, do you think that the apartment complex is nearby, but the damage such as smoke is not that big?

[Originality]
The wind was on the east side of the apartment complex and there was a lot of wind to the west.

[Anchor]
Then, is the nearby road now controlled? Or is it resuming again?

[Originality]
I think it's resuming again now. It was controlled.

[Anchor]
Then, in the current situation, to what extent do you think the fire is being extinguished and organized?

[Kwon Oh-sung]
Yes, I think a lot of smoke has disappeared since about 30 minutes ago now.

[Anchor]
Were there any moments when you thought it was very dangerous while filming?

[Originality]
First of all, it was so windy that a warning message came from the drone. And while filming, two helicopters extinguished the drone right away. After filming.

[Anchor]
Did the helicopter arrive soon? Was the evolution work done quickly?

[Originality]
There was a fire from 9 a.m. I think the helicopter came about 40 minutes later. Around 9:40.

[Anchor]
Was there a lot of difficulty in working on evolution? I think it must have been affected by the weather.

[Originality]
It's too windy in the morning. And when I heard from the fire officials, they said there was a lack of water.

[Anchor]
In fact, as you can see in the video, the smoke is rising so much that did you have more trouble at times like today than when you usually shoot drones?

[Originality]
It was so windy to the west that I filmed it from a distance in the east while avoiding the smoke and got off right away.

[Anchor]
Is there a special reason why you reported this drone video to YTN?

[Originality]
Since I watch YTN almost 10 hours a day, I thought I should report it to YTN right away, so I filmed it with a drone.

[Anchor]
Once again, thank you for reporting to YTN even though it's hectic and there's no situation. Thank you for your call today. So far, I've connected with the informant Kwon Oh-sung to find out the situation at the time.
