The delivery of the victim's body was completed today, right?

[Reporter]
Yes, it is.

Jeju Air's Central Disaster Management Headquarters said the last three bodies of 179 victims were delivered to the bereaved families this morning.

As a result, only 30 days after the accident on December 29 last year, the bodies of the victims were all returned to the arms of the bereaved family.

After a long wait, most of the bereaved families who took over their family's bodies have left Muan Airport for a funeral.

The bereaved family council said it is considering holding a joint memorial service at Muan International Airport on the 18th and is conducting related consultations with related agencies, including the number of people attending the memorial service.

After the funeral, the bereaved families will gather again on the 11th to discuss future plans, including the schedule of the joint memorial service, the call to find out the cause of the disaster, and the issue of compensation for damage.

The government also announced that it will maintain an integrated support center at the site and establish a separate support organization dedicated to bereaved families to continue supporting necessary areas.

As the recovery of the victims is over, the investigation to determine the cause and responsibility of the accident is expected to begin in earnest.

Earlier, the police launched a forced investigation into Muan Airport and Jeju Air, including seizure and search, and banned Jeju Air CEO Kim Yi-bae from leaving the country as a major reference.

After analyzing the search and seizure data, the police are expected to call CEO Kim soon to see if he can charge him with professional negligence or serious accident punishment law.

The police are also investigating online posts that excessively slander or disparage bereaved families.

The National Police Agency is speeding up its investigation by investigating a total of 126 malicious posts, arresting one of them, executing five raids and applying for 51 warrants.
