A vehicular collision occurred at around 9:15 p.m. yesterday (October 28) near the Bukcheonan Interchange on the Seoul-bound Gyeongbu Expressway.

A Damas van following behind a Genesis vehicle that was moving slowly in the third lane rear-ended it and then tipped over onto its side.

As a result of the accident, the driver of the Damas, a man in his 50s, was transported to the hospital in a state of cardiac arrest and ultimately passed away.

During the accident cleanup process, vehicular congestion continued for about 50 minutes over a stretch of approximately 4 kilometers.

Police are investigating the exact circumstances of the accident.
