It was the country's second major blaze in a month, and officials admitted there was no sprinkler system installed at the hospital. All the dead were in the hospital, Choi said. South Korean President Moon Jae-In called an emergency meeting with advisers, and demanded an immediate probe into the cause of the blaze. Friday's fire is South Korea's worst since 2008, when a blaze at a warehouse in the city of Icheon killed 40 workers.
