The accident occurred at 3:41 p.m. on a mountain in Buk district (northwest of the city), about 230 km from the capital Seoul.

According to the local fire department, the forest fire started at 3:12 a.m. in the Buk district. The forestry department dispatched five helicopters to put out the fire, including the crashed plane.

Before the helicopter crashed, at around 3:30 a.m., the Buk District Office sent an urgent warning to residents, asking them to stay away from nearby mountain areas and asking hikers to exercise extreme caution.

The fire is believed to have started in a field before spreading rapidly up the hillside, and authorities are still assessing the damage caused by the fire.

This helicopter crash has made the Korean people even more worried, as just a few weeks ago, on March 22, a large forest fire broke out in Unhwa-ri (Onyang-eup), burning more than 930 hectares of forest and taking 5 days to be completely controlled.

That incident also saw a helicopter crash and the pilot killed in action.

South Korea has been hit by a string of devastating wildfires in recent weeks, killing at least 30 people and destroying homes and buildings. Authorities are considering raising the fire risk alert as dry weather and strong winds continue.
