A harbor or inlet is a way for ships to come and go, so no one should go in and swim.
However, because of the hot weather, there are many people who get into accidents while playing in the water at Hangpo-gu.
This is a report by KCTV Jeju Broadcasting reporter Kim Gyeong-im.

Bomok-gu, Seogwipo-si.
The Coast Guard hurriedly swims to the man floating in the middle of the port, checks the man’s consciousness, and conducts rescue operations.

On the 6th, a report was received that a friend who was playing in the water in Bomokpo-gu, Seogwipo-si was not seen.
The Coast Guard and firefighters rescued the 19-year-old man A and took him to the hospital, but he eventually died.
Amid the scorching heat, water accidents continue to occur in Hangpo-gu.
Sinchonpo-gu, Jeju-si.
It is crowded with swimmers.
Bring various equipment to the tube and enjoy playing in the water.
As the ports in the province become known as special places for water play through SNS, visitors continue to visit them.
This is a port where ships come and go, and swimming is prohibited.
There is a sign saying no swimming, but they don’t care.
Diving is in full swing at another port nearby.
Young-looking students line up and jump into the water.
A situation that may lead to an accident.
Accordingly, the Coast Guard is reinforcing patrols in the ports of the province.
This is because ships come and go frequently and the depth is deep, so safety accidents can occur. In particular, most port ports do not have lifeguards, so it is difficult to respond promptly in case of an accident.

The problem is that even if a water player is caught, there is no special punishment.
This is due to the lack of a clear legal basis.
In the meantime, accidents in Hangpo-gu continue to happen.
A total of 60 drowning accidents occurred in Hangpo-gu in the province in the past three years.
13 people died as a result.

As the heatwave continues for the time being, special attention is required as it is expected that water players will flock to Hangpo-gu in the province.
