Gray smoke covered Bukhansan Mountain.

A red flame glows under the smoke.

It was around 12 noon when the fire broke out on the Bukhansan Jokduribong trail.

The fire spread rapidly to the top of the mountain with the wind.

The hikers hurriedly evacuated.

[오대윤 / 목격자 : 연기가 멀리서 봤을 때는 계속 더 많이 났던 것 같아요. 연기가 바람을 타고 와서 창문을 열어놓으니까 사무실로 그 냄새가 막 들어왔어요.]

When pickles were harsh and fears grew that a wildfire would spread in dry weather, the fire department took the first step in response, mobilizing all fire department personnel in charge.

About 600 people, including Seoul City, the Forest Service, and military personnel, were employed at the site.

Six helicopters, including the Fire Department, Forest Service, and military helicopters, also sent and constantly sprayed water.

[이대우 / 서울 은평소방서 소방행정과장 : (화재 초반에는) 한 3백 제곱미터가 화재가 발생했으나 점점 확대돼서 12시 38분에 대응 1단계를 발령하였습니다.]

In two and a half hours, a large flame was lit, and it took five hours to clear the remaining lights, and the fire was completely extinguished.

In an instant, some 5,000 square meters of the ridge were burned.

The place where the fire was located was near the residential area and the neighbors were nervous, but there was no damage.

[우영이 / 인근 주민 : 연기가 많이 나고 그러니까 지금도 가슴이 떨려요. 산에 불나는 거 너무 무섭잖아요. 불씨가 집에 붙고 그러니까…. 여기가 바로 집이거든요.]

The fire department plans to conduct a joint inspection next week to determine the exact cause of the fire and the extent of the damage with the Forest Service.
