An elderly woman in her 80s went missing in Yeongyang, Gyeongbuk, prompting the police and related authorities to launch a joint search, but her whereabouts remain unknown after four days.

According to the Gyeongbuk Police Agency and Gyeongbuk Fire Headquarters on the 30th, a report was received from the family that Ms. A, who suffers from dementia symptoms, left her home in Yeongyang-eup, Yeongyang-gun around 11:45 a.m. on the 26th and has not been seen since early morning.

Firefighters and others immediately began searching but have yet to find her.

The police, fire department, military units, and Yeongyang-gun authorities?four organizations in total?are conducting a joint search of the village where Ms. A was first reported missing and the nearby valley area.

At the time of her disappearance, Ms. A was wearing a black short-sleeved T-shirt and a sky-blue skirt. She is about 152 cm tall, weighs approximately 35 kg, has a slender build, and has mostly white hair.

A representative of the joint search team said, “Ms. A does not have a mobile phone, making it difficult to track her location,” and added, “If anyone sees a person dressed similarly to the missing individual, please report it to the 182 Police Civil Complaint Call Center.”
