On November 23‚ 2010‚ North Korea unleashed a surprise artillery attack on Yeonpyeong Island.
[Interview : ] "We're at war and it's a sea of fire. Bombs are going off everywhere and many fires are starting."
The attack put not only Korea‚ but the entire world‚ on edge‚ and forced some 1‚300 residents to evacuate the island. 100 days later‚ how has Yeonpyeong Island changed[Interview : Lee Yeong-cheol‚ Resident of Yeonpyeong Island] " Today is the first time I'm returning since the shelling of November 23."
[Interview : Sin Yu-taek‚ Resident of Yeonpyeong Island] "I need to go back and catch blue crabs again. I'm more worried about how I'm going to live from now on."
[Interview : An Geom-nyeo‚ Resident of Yeonpyeong Island] "I tell myself that I should live life to the fullest as I return to the island‚ but I'm still uncertain. I don't even know how I feel and that makes me uneasy."

The residents have gone through three months of refugee life and are finally returning home. However‚ the scars of the incident are visible in every street and house.
Roughly 170 North Korean artillery shells destroyed 46 houses while damaging 142 others. Charred remains can still be seen around the island.
The residents felt as bleak as the aftermath of the shelling.
[Interview : Jo Sun-ok‚ Resident of Yeonpyeong Island] "My heart sinks when I see the charred remains of houses here‚ even though my house is okay."
[Interview : ] "Were you here during the incident[Interview : ] "I don't want to talk about it."
[Interview : Yu Seon-nyeo‚ Resident of Yeonpyeong Island] "When I think about that day‚ it feels like there's going to be another explosion somewhere. It makes me uneasy."
This temporary housing complex built on the main field of an elementary school was created for residents who lost their homes. Each house is only 18 square meters big‚ but has a bathroom and a kitchen‚ just like a typical house. Even so‚ residents do not feel at home because of memories of their own houses.
How was it during the shelling[Interview : Kim Bu-jeon‚ Resident of Yeonpyeong Island] "Everything was up in flames in the blink of an eye. I couldn't bring anything with me except for the clothes I was wearing‚ and I couldn't hold back my tears."
This old lady eventually tears up. Her life right now is in shambles.
[Interview : An Suk-ja‚ Resident of Yeonpyeong Island] "Life in a temporary house is uncomfortable. Nothing works right. I've lived in one house for 40 years‚ and that is the most comforting place for me."
The township office has taken on trying to make the residents' lives easier. It is busy taking care of a variety of requests.
[Interview : ] "We need 2 doors and 2 windows fixed‚ and panes for the windows."
[Interview : Choi Cheol-yeong‚ Industrial team chief
Yeonpyeong Township Office] "46 houses have been completely destroyed‚ and about 200 houses have suffered partial damages from the shelling."
Its most pressing task is fixing the boilers and water pipes‚ which have frozen and burst over the winter with no one to look after them.
[Interview : Park Jong-ho‚ Facilities team chief
Yeonpyeong Township Office] "Mainly‚ we are receiving calls from people whose houses do not have heating and running water‚ since those two are needed in order to live in a house. So far‚ we have completed repairing 90% of the heating and water systems."
Yeonpyeong Island is slowly coming back to life. The sounds of repairs being made can be heard in every street. With having to fix many broken doors and windows‚ as well as frozen and burst boilers and water pipes‚ there is no end to the repairs.
[Interview : Kim Su-do‚ Manager of a window and door company] "Words cannot express how the situation was during the shelling. I could not ke
