People pay respects to victims of deadly Jeju Air plane crash at memorial in Muan
People on Monday (December 30) paid their respects at a memorial held for the victims of the Jeju Air plane crash a day earlier, the deadliest ever on South Korean soil. All 175 passengers and four of the six crew were killed on Sunday (December 29) when a Jeju Air Boeing 737-800 belly-landed and skidded off the end of the runway at Muan International Airport, erupting in a fireball as it slammed into a wall. Two crew members were pulled out alive. South Korean officials said they were investigating the cause of the crash, including a possible bird strike, which killed almost all the 181 people on the aircraft. South Korea's acting President Choi Sang-mok, in an emergency meeting on Sunday evening, declared a national mourning period until January 4 over the plane crash. (Production: Dogyun Kim, Feline Lim)
