Candice in Korea
 
Typically after monsoon season in Korea comes typhoon season, bringing even more rain and heavy winds. This year, monsoon season arrived late, and now typhoon season has hit Korea hard.

Last week, typhoon Kompasu damaged the eastern side of South Korea and left many people injured, as well as five fatal cases. It was the strongest typhoon in 15 years. This week, the second typhoon of the season hits Korea, and it's the 10th in the northwest pacific area. 


Typhoon Malou, although not as strong, is predicted to last for much longer and bring winds the speed of 74km. It hit Jeju yesterday and will be heading towards mainland this evening and hover over the southern area although it's direction is unpredictable.

I am so grateful to be out of the danger area! My thoughts go out to all those who are suffering any loses due to these natural disasters.
