The last day of mourning, the wave of remembrance...Muan Airport in Sadness

Today (4th) is the last day of the national mourning period for the Jeju Air plane disaster.

Many mourners visited the scene of the disaster and shared their sadness with the bereaved families.

The mourning period will end, but the nationwide mourning wave, including the operation of the memorial altar, is expected to continue.

Reporter Kim Geun-woo reports.

Airport."

[Kwon Woo-young / Samcheok-si, Gangwon-do: I don't think it's anyone else's business because I have children and family. So, I kept thinking about how the victims and their bereaved families would feel..]

Volunteers from all over the world are the hands and feet of bereaved families who have lost their daily lives.

Like my job, I've been living at the airport for days and helping the bereaved.

There are times when I get tired of delivering food to daily necessities, but when I face the bereaved families, I just feel sorry.

[Roh Gunpo / Volunteer: We have one heart. I would appreciate it if I could be consoling them, as a person of the people.]

Citizens who forgot the year-end and New Year holidays at the news of the tragic disaster and came to join the bereaved families.

Even if the national mourning period ends, Gwangju and Jeollanam-do, where the victims are concentrated, plan to open memorial altars without a separate end period to receive mourners from all over the country.
