Korea has developed a Helium Cooled Ceramic Reflector (HCCR) Test Blanket Module (TBM) and its auxiliary system in ITER. In parallel with its design, safety analysis has performed including accident analysis with the selected reference accidents. Among them, the effect of in-box LOCA to the structural integrity of the TBM was investigated. From the transient analysis of the GAMMA-FR on the in-box LOCA, it is found that the pressure of the internal TBM can be increased up to 8 MPa with the same pressure of the operating coolant through the Tritium Extraction System (TES) and He purge lines in the TBM. Structural analysis with ANSYS code for TBM was performed with this condition and it is confirmed that the TBM can endure and it does not affect the ITER machine by the failure.
