"Come quickly!" "The baby!!"… Swept away in just "30 seconds" despite no heavy rain

Around 9 a.m. on the 8th, a valley in Inje-gun, Gangwon Province. In less than 30 seconds, the peaceful valley's water level rose up to shoulder height.

A child playing in the water was even swept away in an instant while trying to cross the overflowing water.

Emergency rescue teams quickly rushed to the scene, connected ropes across the valley, and evacuated people via boat, successfully rescuing all seven people trapped in the rapids.

At the time, there was no heavy rain in the Inje valley, so why did the water overflow so suddenly?
