Yongin sits in South Korea’s greater Seoul capital region along the Han River basin, where the summer monsoon front known as jangma brings weeks of sustained rain from late June through July, followed by a secondary risk from typhoon remnants reaching the peninsula in August and September.
South of Seoul, the city’s rapidly urbanized terrain has reduced natural drainage capacity in several newer districts. Because the jangma front can stall for days over the same area, cumulative rainfall rather than any single storm is often the bigger flood driver, and radar is used alongside river-gauge data on the Han River system to track conditions in real time. The Korea Meteorological Administration operates the national weather radar network. Learn more: Flash Flood Warning Signs on Radar · Open the full Rain Map
