Cars were seen submerged in flood waters caused by the typhoon in Boseong county, South Jeolla Province, on Sunday. Local fishermen have anchored their large fishing vessels at the marina, while hauling smaller boats ashore to lessen the damage.
Typhoon preparations are being carried out by Koreans, who were spotted at stores buying dehumidifiers, umbrellas and rain boots.
