Light rain offers relief to South Korean authorities tackling country's worst wildfires on record.

At least 28 people have died and more than 45,000 hectares ( 111,197 acres ) of largely forest land have been charred or are burning.

Yeongdeok county on the east coast , where the fire spread from the initial blaze more than 70 km away in under 12 hours , is still fighting to contain the flames.
