Flood control dam on inter-Korean river

Water gushes out of the floodgates of the Gunnam Dam on the Imjin River that runs across the inter-Korean border in the South Korean border town of Yeoncheon, north of Seoul, on July 15, 2026. The state-run Korea Water Resources Corp. opened all of the dam's seven floodgates to lower the water level after the region received heavy rain. The dam, opened in 2010, was designed to deal with flash floods from North Korea. (Yonhap)
