Deputy Director Park also said that immediately after the discharge of treated water began on the 24th, a photograph that appeared to have turned black in the waters near the Fukushima nuclear power plant was circulated, calling it “fake news.”
Deputy Director Park said, "As a result of asking the TEPCO side about the related content, this photo was taken around 1:05 pm, but the time when the contaminated water was discharged into the sea was 1:13 pm.
He said, "(Before the release), the time is not right." He continued, ``The part where the sea looks black matches the position of the reef, and the color seems to change.
"The reason why the surface of the sea looks yellow is because the tide is strong, and it's a common phenomenon in the sea around Fukushima."
“The phenomenon in this photo is a very natural phenomenon, so it cannot be related to the release of contaminated water.
It's not a plan," he stressed.
