Fortunately no one die nor severely injured.
The accident happened on yesterday's morning which was quite cold and thus the rapid temperature drop have been cited as a possible reason for the problem to occurs to the track and cause the derailment.
When the accident occurs, the train was only 5 minutes away from its terminal, still running on a single track section and the speed was just a bit above 100 km/h
This section of track is relatively new, opened last December that it haven't reach its first anniversary yet.
The Korail president seems to think the use of Jacobs bogie have help prevented the train from overturning in this accident and thus achieved zero death nor sever injury
