[자막뉴스] 갓난아기까지 안고...재난문자 발송됐는데 '위험천만' / YTN

Angry waves crash ceaselessly around the rocky shore. A man standing on the rocks briefly crouches down, then spreads his arms wide to face the house-sized waves head-on. "Oh my, oh dear, I don't know why that man is doing this." It is a perilous situation where one could be swept away by the waves. Yet, the man even dances on the rocks. "Dancing and causing a ruckus. Up there on the rocks..." Only after the Coast Guard arrives does the man come down from the rocks. Another beach in Gangneung. This is the place where a man in his 70s, who had his feet in the water, was swept away by waves and died on the 6th. A man approaches the sea holding a newborn baby, then retreats to the sandy beach to avoid the incoming waves. Just as he was repeating this dangerous behavior, the waves crash into the sandy beach, soaking both the man holding the baby and the surrounding tourists. "Ah!" At the time, waves reaching nearly 5 meters in height surged along the East Coast amidst a storm warning. Even though disaster alerts prohibiting access to the coastline were sent out, it was to no avail. Including the high school student who went missing in Goseong, five people have died or gone missing this month alone along the East Coast of Gangwon Province due to coastal accidents, such as rogue waves. [Kim Kyu-han / Professor of Civil Engineering, Catholic Kwandong University: When rogue waves arrive, if you dip your feet in, you can be pulled deep in at any moment. Also, because the pulling force is strong when the next wave comes, you can easily be swept away.] The Coast Guard urged people to avoid approaching the coastline at all when a storm warning is issued or a disaster alert is sent out.
