A 2.1 magnitude earthquake struck southeastern South Korea early Sunday, but no damage was reported.
The quake hit some 4 kilometers southeast of Changnyeong County, about 260 km southeast of Seoul, at 2:04 a.m. from a depth of 13 kilometers, the Korea Meteorological Administration (KMA) said.
The epicenter was located at a latitude of 35.53 degrees north and a longitude of 128.53 degrees east.
The maximum seismic intensity scale was 2, which means that the tremor can be felt only by a small number of people in a quiet state or on a higher floor.
"There will be no damage from this quake," a KMA official said.
It was the 29th quake to hit the Korean Peninsula this year, according to the KMA. (Yonhap)
