[Asia Economy Reporter Jang Hyowon] Around 11:50 AM on the 1st, a water pipe is presumed to have burst in a manhole on a road in Munhyeon-dong, Nam-gu, Busan, causing a 25-meter water column to shoot up.


Despite residents' reports, the water column continued to rise for nearly an hour. Employees from the Waterworks Headquarters shut the valve around 12:43 PM to stop the water column.



The police and fire department partially controlled the nearby flooded road, and no one was injured in the accident.
