The power outage was caused by a problem with the equipment supplying electricity to the Korea GM Changwon plant, which is currently halting factory operations. The exact cause has not yet been clearly identified, but Korea GM Changwon plant and KEPCO are preparing countermeasures to quickly normalize factory operations.



Mayor Hong said, “Since Korea GM holds a significant position in the Changwon economy, the city will do its best to support KEPCO and Korea GM in cooperating to restore power as soon as possible.”
