Remember that cramped basement home of a family, and how it gets flooded, in the movie Parasite?
There have been similar scenes in real life Seoul in this week’s flooding but with more tragic consequences. Of at least nine people confirmed dead so far, three lived in a home like that - and one of them was disabled. The three, members of one family, drowned in their basement home on Monday night as the water rose rapidly.The victims were reported to be a 46-year-old woman, her 13-year-old daughter, and the mother’s sister, a 47-year-old with a developmental disability.
