A freak landslide in Hongcheon County, Gangwon, buried a warehouse and forced 16 residents to evacuate—despite no injuries. Triggered by unusual rockfall that intensified the day before, the event caught authorities off guard since the area had no known landslide risks. Heavy rain over three days may have played a role. Emergency crews secured the site while experts from Korea’s Forestry Institute assess the cause; stabilization and cleanup can’t begin until the soil settles.
