Deputy Governor Oh expressed his condolences to the victims, emphasizing, "Do not worry about financial matters such as medical expenses; focus solely on your recovery. Gyeonggi Province will take full responsibility and provide support until the end."

At the meeting, they listened to the difficulties currently faced by the victims and promised measures that Gyeonggi Province can take.

For the patient from Thailand hospitalized at the Armed Forces Capital Hospital, a request was made to the Immigration Office to guarantee their stay for stable recovery, and since the patient currently has mobility difficulties, a caregiver will be provided.

Additionally, it was confirmed that a victim in their 60s receiving treatment at Uijeongbu St. Mary's Hospital is unable to care for their elderly mother living alone, so arrangements were made to provide caregiving personnel through the Gyeonggi Social Service Institute. The victim's family expressed gratitude, saying, "Despite our pain, our only worry was for our mother, but now we feel relieved."

For the victim whose vinyl greenhouse was damaged, it was promised to consult with relevant agencies to ensure that compensation includes not only the greenhouse facility but also the damage to crops.

Gyeonggi Province plans to continue closely assessing the damages caused by this accident and devise practical support measures.
