Confirmed Object Presumed to Be Missing Person in Upper Floors of 'Gwangju Apartment Collapse'

Bloodstains and Work Clothes Found... Presumed Master Bedroom in Room 2 on the 27th Floor

[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Cho Hyung-joo] A clue that could identify the location of the second missing person in the Gwangju newly built apartment collapse accident was discovered fifteen days after the incident.

Moon Hee-jun, Head of the Seo-gu Emergency Rescue Control Team (Chief of Gwangju Western Fire Station), held an emergency briefing on the afternoon of the 25th and stated, "An object presumed to be a person was found."

At around 5:30 p.m. that day, bloodstains and work clothes were discovered during the search of the upper floors.

Immediately, an endoscopic camera was inserted, and it was confirmed that the object was presumed to be a person.

Debris is piled up in layers, so it is expected to take more time to reach the rescue.

Although it is difficult to determine the exact floor, the authorities believe it is the master bedroom of Unit 2 on the 27th floor.
