It is a village in Yangseo-myeon, Yangpyeong-gun, Gyeonggi-do.

The utility pole that should stand upright is lying on the floor.

The wires are tangled up here and there with the snow.

At dawn, heavy snow fell, and the telephone pole couldn't overcome the weight and fell.

Company employees have collected broken utility poles, but there are still traces of the accident.

As the road connecting the village and the outside was blocked, more than 60 households were isolated for about five hours and had to wait for restoration work.

The aluminum pole is lying weakly.

There's a lot of snow on the tent.

At around 8:40 a.m., a tent-type garage collapsed due to snow accumulated at a farmhouse in Okcheon-myeon, Yangpyeong-gun.

A man in his 80s who was working on snow removal was laid down, and he was taken to the hospital in cardiac arrest, but he died.

Police believe the roof of the garage collapsed without bearing the weight of the snow and are investigating the details of the accident.
