According to local news sources 12 occupants received injuries in the evacuation.

Passengers are risking their lives and those of their fellow passengers taking their baggage with them in an evacutaion.
This Korean Air 777-300 (HL-7534) was delivered to the airline in 1998 and is powered by two Pratt and Whitney PW PW4098 engines.
