In Sinheung-dong, Seongnam-si, Gyeonggi-do, a two-story house just collapsed.
It is believed to have collapsed due to the weight of the snow because it is an old building, but it is said that there were no people in the building.
I'll connect with a reporter to find out more about the accident.
Reporter Jung Hyun-woo, how did the accident happen?
[Reporter]
Yes.
I will explain it while watching the report video that came into YTN.
There is a control line in a narrow alley, and 119 ambulances are also here in case you don't know.
But suddenly, the residential building inside the control line begins to collapse.
It's a two-story building, and it's completely turned off to the floor, and there's a huge roar.
