With the heatwave continuing nationwide, it is difficult to predict how high temperatures will rise. On August 1 at 2:08 p.m., the temperature in Yangsan, South Gyeongsang Province, reached 41.6 degrees, setting a record as the “highest temperature in 122 years of domestic weather observations.” While citizens are cooling off in various places such as libraries, heat shelters, and mountain streams, those vulnerable to the heat—including workers at construction and agricultural sites and outdoor laborers—are struggling to make a living in environments that have become “disasters.” Meanwhile, with no rain in sight to alleviate the heatwave, even healthy people need to take extra precautions against heat-related illnesses.
