Fire Destroys Historic Seoul Landmark
大火焚毀首爾歷史性地標
Fire destroyed perhaps Seoul’s most famous landmark on Sunday night when
flames engulfed the Sungnyemun, more commonly known as Namdaemun or South
Gate, the nation’s no.1 national treasure. Thirty-nine fire engines and 88
firefighters rushed to the scene at shortly before 9 p.m. on Sunday. The
destruction of a six-century-old national treasure is being blamed on the
misjudgment of firefighters and inept attempts to bring the fire under
control at the initial stage. At 10:30 p.m., firefighters believed they had
extinguished the flames, but it rekindled on the second floor and engulfed
the gate. A taxi driver identified as Lee Sang-gon said he saw a man entering
Namdaemun with a bag in his hand while waiting for a fare. “Several minutes
later, a fire broke out on the second floor of the gate. I immediately
reported it to police.”
星期日晚間，大火燒毀了可能是首爾最知名的地標–崇禮門。也就是南大門，南韓排名第
一的國家級寶藏。三十九輛消防車與八十八名消防隊員即時在星期日晚間九點集結。這扇
有六個世紀之久的南大門，因為離譜的人為錯誤、疏忽造成焚毀。在晚間十點半，消防隊
認為他們消滅了大火，但是在崇禮門第二層又死灰復燃，最終吞噬整座城門。一位計程車
司機Lee Sang-gon說道：他等待乘客時看到一個男子進入南大門，提著背包。「幾分鐘後
，火苗從大門二層竄出。我立刻通知警察。」
Firefighters fought the blaze with ladders and fire hoses at 8:55 p.m. and by
10: 30 p.m. thought the fire was under control and focused on putting out
smaller flames. But the blaze rekindled at 10:40 p.m. and burnt the roof out.
It collapsed at 12:40 a.m. on Monday. At 12:00 a.m., firefighters belatedly
tried to take the roof apart and douse the gate with water inside, but the
effort failed and firefighters were reduced to watching the gate collapse
while they sprinkled water around it at ground level.
消防隊在晚間八點五十五分以消防梯與水柱對抗大火，到了十點三十分以為大火已被控制
，轉而注意在小的火苗上。但火苗在晚間十點四十分重燃，燒光了屋頂。星期一凌晨十二
時四十分倒塌。消防隊曾遲緩地試圖拆開屋頂來從裡面息滅火勢，但是失敗收場。只能在
地上撒水，怔怔地望著城門崩解。
