2025 South Korea Wildfire, After 1 Year
The forest that embraces the village is consumed by the wildfire, leaving behind a desolate and disfigured scene at Seokbo Myeon in Cheongsong, South Korea, on February 10, 2026. On March 25, 2025, a wildfire ignites in Goesan-ri, Anpyeong-myeon, Uiseong-gun, Gyeongsangbuk-do. Burning for five days, it sweeps through four cities, devastating 994.9 square kilometers of forest and destroying 4,458 homes. The disaster results in 28 deaths and 32 injuries. Although a year passes since the fire is fully extinguished, the enormity of the affected area makes recovery progress slow. (Photo by Seung-il Ryu/NurPhoto)
