Joo Young-cheol, Head of the Prevention and Safety Division, stated, “Apartments have a spatial characteristic where many people live in a limited space, so the risk of casualties is high in the event of a fire. If the fire location and scale are unknown, one should assess whether to evacuate according to the situation rather than evacuating unconditionally.”
