A major fire occurred on 29 April 2020 at a construction site in Icheon, South Korea, killing 39 people and injuring another 10.[1][2][3] Blood samples taken from 23 victims indicate most had died from carbon monoxide poisoning.[4] Autopsies have been completed on 15 of the 39 people killed, as recommended by South Korea authorities, but has angered victims' families.[4] All killed workers were irregular or subcontract workers.[5]

The building under construction has four floors above-ground and two more underground. The building did not have sprinklers or other obligatory safety measures.[5] The fire broke out when some 78 workers were in the sub-basement working on polyurethane foam.[6] The first explosion occurred around 13:30 (4:30 UTC).[7] At least 10 explosions were heard.[3]

Authorities launched an investigation to determine the cause of the fire and what safety regulations were violated.[5]

An earlier fire at a refrigerated warehouse in Icheon on 7 January 2008 had killed 40 workers.[1]
