Yonhap reports on a fire at a motel in Gwangju that killed three and injured ten.
Three people were killed and ten others were injured when a fire took place in a motel early Saturday morning, authorities said.
The fire erupted at an underground bar of the motel in Gwangju, 329 kilometers south of Seoul, shortly before 5 a.m., officials at the Gwangju Fire Station said.
The bar was still open at the time and about 30 guests were staying in the motel, according to the officials.
Dispatched firefighters evacuated people and put out the fire in about 20 minutes, they said.
While bar employees and customers immediately exited, guests sleeping in their rooms were killed or became seriously ill as toxic gas rapidly spread throughout the five-story building.

"While bar employees and customers immediately exited, they didnt bother to notify the other guests and there were no fire alarms so guests sleeping in their rooms were killed or became seriously ill"
