The number of casualties keeps rising. The situation in Nepal, where torrential rains have caused severe flooding, is becoming increasingly grim. A team of reporters from the Korean Broadcasting System (KBS) visited the affected areas on the 14th and witnessed the devastation firsthand. On that day, the death toll from the floods and landslides that have been occurring since the 11th had already reached 41, with 18 still missing. The reporters saw a field that had turned into a muddy swamp, with bodies being brought in one after another. “They’re coming in too fast,” a worker at the scene said, overcome with emotion. The team witnessed a group of rescue workers and volunteers trying to rescue people from a house that had been swept away. The water level had receded, but the mud that had accumulated inside the house made it difficult to move. The reporters observed that the roads were severely damaged, with large cracks and deep holes. The Nepal government has announced that it will provide 100,000 rupees (approximately $1,000 USD) in compensation to the families of those who have died. The Korean government has also decided to provide $1 million in emergency aid to Nepal. The situation in Nepal continues to deteriorate, with more rain expected in the coming days. The Nepalese government and international aid organizations are working together to provide assistance to those affected by the disaster. The Korean government and people are deeply saddened by the loss of life and the suffering of the Nepalese people. The KBS team will continue to provide updates on the situation in Nepal as more information becomes available.

"Too many casualties entering too quickly..." Those haunting words echoed on the day of the devastating flood in Nepal's Nuwakot District. Thick mud flows, churned with debris and reports of bodies, thundered down the river from the source. The river, once a serene entity, had turned into a gaping maw of destruction, carrying away lives like sand before a raging tide.

At the verge of Nuwakot's submerge, just hours after the news reached, the team from Korean newspaper 'Hankyoreh' arrived at the village of Dungeshwori, barely having covered a guided path of three hours. The sheer volume of water made a deafening noise, drowning the earlier scream of the earthquake.

Nineteen-year-old Mr. Kumar from Kathmandu was among the 9 Japanese nationals missing, having disappeared in the UT-1 (Upper Turbidity-1) Hydroelectric Power Plant site, 20 kilometers south of the Dungeshwari. The first house facing the river stood as a grim testament to the flood, with the lower half of its structure buried in the thick mud.

The aftermath of the disaster revealed a city that had vanished overnight, submerged under a carpet of mud. Even a two-story house appeared as a single-storey home, its lower part engulfed in the thick mud. The ground beneath seemed solid at first glance, yet with every step, it would give way, sucking the feet down. One survivor, Yuushuman Gurkhe (23), working with the Nepalese Scouts, warned of the danger lurking beneath.

"The mud seeps into your body like quicksand. I'm sending people back who try to retrieve even the simplest tools," he said. The situation in Dungeshwari was even worse. Houses were half-buried in mud, shattered wood and glass littered the streets, and the pungent smell of death hung heavy in the air. Amid the rubble, a motorbike trapped in the mud was pulled out, while a rescue team was seen carrying a rescued person on their shoulders.

Mr. Chhetra Charak, 54, painstakingly cleaned debris from the half-buried house. He had built his home over 15 years, yet finding intact possessions in the debris was a Herculean task. "I didn't believe the flood warnings. My wife managed to escape with her life," he admitted, adding, "Tomorrow was supposed to be the 'Jatra' festival under the full moon, but now it has all disappeared."

The emptied markets and vacant shops in the village were stark reminders of the flood's fury. Meanwhile, the elementary school in nearby Vinudur was full of displaced families. Five-year-old Sonali Parari, clutching her father's hand, recounted how her family made a living by collecting sand for the construction site along the river.

"On that day, I worked until 9 in the morning, returned home, and had a meal with my husband and child. Then, I was suddenly asked to evacuate. When I looked back, my house was being swallowed by the flood." The villagers who managed to escape the flood were now seeking refuge at the makeshift shelter in Vinudur, where many had lost their loved ones.

The injured and bereaved were rushed to the largest hospital in Kathmandu, Triveni Teaching Hospital, while the people of Nuwakot and Rasuwa waited anxiously for news of their missing relatives.
