    SEOUL, February 24 (AJP) - A fire broke out in an apartment unit in southern Seoul on Tuesday, leaving one person dead and three others injured.

    About 70 residents were evacuated after the fire began at around 6:20 a.m. at the Eunma apartment complex in Daechi-dong, an affluent neighborhood in Seoul's Gangnam district, according to district officials.

    Fire authorities said they contained the fire in about an hour and were working to extinguish the remaining flames.

    The aging complex, built in 1979 and long slated for redevelopment into high-rise skyscrapers that could house nearly 6,000 households, has seen property prices surge in recent years.
