The Korea Meteorological Administration stated, "Very heavy rain in a short period may cause rivers and valleys to suddenly swell, so campers in mountainous and valley areas should be especially cautious about safety accidents," and added, "As the ground has been weakened by heavy rain and additional heavy rain is expected until the day after tomorrow, please be careful to prevent damage such as flooding in lowlands and farmland, landslides, and retaining wall collapses."

In areas where rain clouds develop strongly, there may be thunder and lightning accompanied by gusts of wind, so facility management and safety precautions are necessary.
