[Asia Economy Reporter Lim Cheol-young] The Seoul Metropolitan Government's Health and Environment Research Institute issued a fine dust advisory as of 3 PM on the 7th. Earlier, the institute issued a fine dust advisory at 1 PM and a fine dust warning at 2 PM.

The institute stated that the cause of this high concentration of ultrafine dust is the influx of yellow dust originating from the Gobi Desert in Mongolia on the 5th, which also increased the concentration of ultrafine dust.
