Normal operation restored 2 hours after Ewha Womans University Station was bypassed without stopping, responding to smoke and a malfunction in the safety doors Service resumes without any casualties thanks to Seoul Metro's guidance and the fire department's response
The nostop passage that had continued due to smoke and a malfunction of the platform screen doors at Ehwa Station on Seoul Subway Line 2 on the evening of the 22nd ended after about two hours, and normal service resumed.
The Seoul Metro said that when smoke 발생 in the machine room at Ehwa Station around 8:10 p.m., it temporarily arranged for trains on Line 2 in both directions to pass through without stopping. Service was then normalized once, but about 15 minutes later, a problem occurred in which the platform screen doors would not open, and it was changed back to nostop passage.
