Key Points

The aim is to characterize the active fault in the southern Yangsan Fault Zone, focusing on the Samsu Fault.
Conducted seismic investigations to identify fault characteristics in the Yangsan Fault Zone.
Utilized geological mapping and data analysis to assess tectonic activity within the region.
Identified the Samsu Fault as an active fault with significant tectonic implications for the area.
Observed notable seismic activity related to the fault indicating potential earthquake risks.
