Seoul Metro said, "A train has broken down, and we are currently preparing to couple it to a rescue train," adding, "The recovery will take some time." A rescue coupling involves a functioning train pushing a disabled train from behind.



Train service on the upbound section of Line 7 is currently delayed, while downbound trains are operating normally. Seoul Metro believes the train's braking system malfunctioned and plans to inspect the cause of the breakdown in detail after it arrives at the Dobong rolling stock depot.
