On June 12, at approximately 9:50 a.m. local time, a fire erupted in the gas chamber located on the second floor of the M15X building within SK Hynix's Cheongju Campus 4. This marks the second fire incident at the facility this month. Fortunately, as of now, there have been no reports of gas leaks or any injuries to personnel. The factory's built-in automatic sprinkler system responded promptly, effectively curbing the fire's potential for rapid expansion. SK Hynix is currently conducting a thorough investigation to pinpoint the exact cause of the fire. Additionally, they are evaluating whether a gas leak did indeed occur and assessing the potential impact on their production facilities.
