A devastating factory fire in Daejeon killed 14 people and injured nearly 60, with all missing workers later accounted for.

The blaze spread rapidly through the three-story building, forcing some workers to jump from windows to escape.

Firefighters faced delays due to collapse risks and the presence of hazardous chemicals, including sodium, which complicated efforts to extinguish the fire.

Many victims were found in a third-floor locker room, and some required DNA identification due to severe burns, The Guardian has reported.

Lee Jae Myung called for stronger worker safety measures as authorities continue investigating the cause.
