![A helicopter hovers over Naeseong Stream in Yecheon County, North Gyeongsang, on Wednesday in search of a marine who was swept away while looking for missing persons that morning. None of the marines in the search and rescue team were wearing life jackets at the time of the accident. The body of a man in his 70s was also found along the stream. Yecheon was hit hard by downpours last weekend, with landslides causing large numbers of deaths and evacuations.
