An accident occurred on a highway in North Jeolla Province, one that involved 2,000 chickens and was big enough to completely freeze up traffic.
This past April 22 around 1:30 p.m., a truck that was carrying 2,000 chickens crashed into a median strip, causing the chicken coop to be be dismantled and completely destroyed. Around 100 chickens perished from the accident and 300 chickens escaped the pen, congesting the roads.
