Description
A streak of super-hot tropical nights is set to break a century-old South Korean weather record, according to official data released Wednesday, as the peninsula bakes in a prolonged heat wave.
"It feels like I am trapped in a fishbowl," producer Kim Sung-yoon tells AFP. The so-called tropical nights phenomenon refers to when the temperature does not drop below 25 degrees Celsius (77 Fahrenheit) overnight, according to the Korea Meteorological Administration. IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES
