South Koreans brace themselves for attack from the North

Go Wan Hyeok has created what he claims is South Korea's first fully-nuclear proof bunker to provide safety in case Kim Jong-un launches an atomic warhead


The bunker, which costs around £20,000, is equipped with enough space for four people - though can be modified to take up to eight

There is no doubt that Kim Jong Un's latest missile test has put most of the world on edge - but South Koreans are now being offered peace of mind with these fallout shelters.

Firm Chumdan Bunker System has just opened a showroom in Seoul in order to sell the £20,000 containers which promise to keep people safe if a nuke falls.

Each bunker comes equipped with four beds - though can be modified up to eight - its own air filtration system and solar panels for power.

Company director Go Wan Hyeok said that since the latest test, which happened early on Wednesday, his sales team have been struggling to keep up with demand.

The bunkers also have self-winding generators to provide electricity for up to a month, a fridge, computer and periscope to check when it's safe to come out.

Once submerged the pod can be accessed through a hatch in the top, keeping them isolated from the outside world


In the case of a nuclear war the bunker has enough electricity to last for a month, after which the occupants will be forced to venture above ground

Dehydrated ration packs developed for NASA astronauts are also supplied, along with gas masks for the family and suits to protect against acid rain.

There is also a chemical toilet, shower bag, and sink allowing waste to be drained outside without the occupants being expose.

Mr Go said: 'I started the company in September, but I’ve been researching this for a long time and travelled all round the world. 

Also included are basic survival tools and some more specialist gear such as gas masks and hoods to protect against acid rain
