Lee Geun-young (48), who runs a restaurant near Muan International Airport, suffered from a conspiracy theory that "he knew in advance that there would be an accident" because he reported a video showing the accident to the media on the 29th.
In this regard, Lee said, "After the report, some strangers called and asked me how much I received for reporting the filming," adding, "This situation is so absurd." He explained, "The plane flew particularly low and the turning radius was smaller than usual, so I thought I should film it because I thought 'something is weird'."
Recently, a number of posts have been posted on the online community 'Dish Inside' claiming that the captain and the bookkeeper who flew the plane are women. "I heard that the captain has been in the captain's position since 2019, but the timing is just right when Jeju Air promotes the female captain," and "You're a female captain, right?" followed by a second round of abuse against the deceased.
He did not hesitate to make misogynistic remarks. One author said, "This chapter should be filtered out. He also posted a post saying, "The ability to recognize space and respond to accidents is significantly lower."
However, Jeju Air said both the captain and the captain of the plane were male.
Fake news about the past history of the aircraft in which the accident occurred is also spreading. In particular, it is spreading online that the aircraft in which the accident occurred (HL8088) is the same as the aircraft that returned to Bird Strike (bird strike) over Osaka, Japan in November 2022, but this is not true.
According to Jeju Air, the aircraft number in the accident is HL8088, and the aircraft number returned over Osaka is HL8303. This means that the two planes have the same model as the B737-800, but the aircraft is different.
Jeju Air operates a total of 39 models such as the B737-800 that occurred this time. The airline manages each aircraft with a unique registration number.
