태풍 쁘라삐룬 북상… 정부, 긴급대책회의
Seems like Korea will face its first typhoon of this year.
Formed near Okinawa, Japan's southernmost prefecture, Typhoon Prapiroon, the 7th storm in the Northwest Pacific this year, has been forecast to reach Korea's southernmost Jejudo Island next Monday, and then hit mainland Chungcheongnam-do Province later that day.
The minister of Public Administration and Security convened an emergency meeting of deputy heads of regional governments and directors at related ministries,... urging them to make the necessary precautions to minimize the damage the typhoon could cause, such as flooding and landslides, and especially, civilian casualties.
