Police and firefighters are conducting a joint on-site inspection of a fire at a machinery manufacturing plant in Wanggil-dong, Incheon yesterday.

We are focusing on finding the initial ignition point and the cause of the fire.

I'll connect you to the site and find out. Reporter Yoon Taein!

[Reporter]
Yes, we are at the fire site of the factory in Wanggil-dong, Incheon.

First of all, how is the situation on the ground? Is the fire still going on?

[Reporter]
Twenty hours, almost a day has passed since the fire was extinguished, but the fire scene here is suffocating from the smell of the fire yesterday.

A strong fire swept through the factory-dense area here where I am, leaving only traces everywhere.

If you look at buildings, warehouses, and materials that turned into ashes, you can't tell that this was a grocery dealership.

Our reporters took aerial shots of the fire with a drone,
You can see all the large buildings
turning white like briquettes and slumping down.

I went closer and looked at it, and I could only see dust on top of the vehicle, as well as the body frame remaining.

You can also see all the steel frames collapsed and piled on the floor.

Yesterday, a fire broke out in the industrial complex in Wanggil-dong, Incheon, and it was extinguished in 11 hours, and 36 factories and 70 buildings were burned.

The damage seems to have increased as factories are attached to industrial complexes and most of them are made of flammable materials such as sandwich panels.

[Anchor]
I think factory companies will be severely damaged, so please tell me about the damage situation and fire identification.

[Reporter]
Most of the factories on fire are burned down, and employees who lost their jobs overnight look devastated.

Let's hear from an employee of a company who suffered damage when devices in the factory burned down.

[Park Chan-ho / Employee of a nearby company: If you suffer material damage, it will be about 100 million won. At the end of this year, I'm very busy, and I'm going through this, and I'm still losing manpower because of this, but I'm a little disappointed about that.]

Until a while ago, officials wearing safety gear could be seen looking around here.

The Incheon Metropolitan Police Agency's Scientific Investigation Team conducted a joint inspection with about 10 officials, including the National Forensic Service, from 10:30 a.m. today.

The three-hour inspection focused on the cause of the first fire at an industrial machine manufacturing plant and how it spread to the surroundings.

The Seo-gu Office of Incheon operates the Disaster Integration Support Headquarters and is aware of the damage to companies such as lost goods and employees.

Based on this, we will form a countermeasure headquarters with the Ministry of Public Administration and Security to discuss ways to support affected companies.

So far, I'm YTN Yoon Tae-in at the fire site of the factory in Wanggil-dong, Incheon.
