Okay, I've got to admit, the first thing after I open my eyes, is to check Twitter.
Still groggy at 10.58am, I saw a tweet by @VisitKorea state like this :-
Car is not moving. Engine off.
Some passersby who chilled.
Notice the people with video in the middle. Not sure what they are doing.
Then I realized, "What am I supposed to do? Am i supposed to join the drill too?
Being nosy, I went down.

Still blur I open the web:- Visit Korea
Then it made sense to me, it's like now! What am I supposed to do?
Then a loud sirens are heard... a very loud one.
Since, I read the website, I knew it's a fire drill that traffic will be stopped, and pedestrians will be asked to follow the emergency routes. So I snapped few photos from my place.
Roads are cleared.
The van that made the sirens - i think
The one in charged of the traffic

Stuck Passersby
After few minutes, a loud horns and everything runs back as usual.
Apparently, this drill executed 8 times a year to train civilians in Korea on the evacuation and emergency measures, such as earthquake that happened to our neighbour, Japan.
Personally, i think this is a very good step taken by the government ensure civilant safety.
You know what they say, let's prepare before anything happen.
