At about 12:40 a.m. on the 25th, power was cut to 860 households in an apartment complex in Minrak-dong, Uijeongbu, Gyeonggi.
Because of the outage, residents suffered major inconvenience as they could not use heating devices despite the cold weather.
Korea Electric Power Corporation (KEPCO) said it confirmed an issue with the apartment's own equipment, a transformer, and completed a temporary restoration two hours after the outage, so power is currently being supplied smoothly.
