The agency has decided to provide the building for repairs, but this decision has sparked controversy within the local community. Once the cause of the fire and who is responsible are identified, the agency will have the right to seek compensation from the management office of the apartment complex and the car manufacturer Mercedes-Benz.
The money will come from the Incheon City Disaster Relief Fund and will be used to provide emergency assistance to victims, such as temporary housing and school meals.
However, there are voices in the local community questioning the use of tax money, saying that the apartment management office and car manufacturer Mercedes Benz should be held responsible.
In particular, on the local online community "Mama Cafe," a netizen named "Cheongna resident" wrote, "The maximum amount for a family of four is 3.19 million won.
"Why does Nishi Ward need to spend such a large amount of money?" pointed out another netizen, "Apartment residents should have a certain amount of financial means. There are people who are enduring in small rooms without air conditioning.
"There are many people in the area, so this is going too far," he said. Criticism has spread to other areas, and there are concerns that the opinion that disregards all residents in the area where the apartment complex is located is spreading.
As the controversy spreads, the agency said on the 14th that it would consider exercising its right of recourse against the party responsible for the fire once the cause and responsibility are determined.
The fire, which broke out on the 1st of this month, occurred at an apartment building in Cheongna International City, Seo-gu, Incheon.
The fire occurred in an underground parking lot in the city of Kochi, and 23 people were taken to the hospital with smoke inhalation. 87 cars were burned and 783 cars were damaged. Damage to underground facilities and pipes also led to continued power and water outages.
