According to the will of the bereaved family, we also operate a psychological counseling program in connection with the mental health welfare center in our residence, and for those who continue to have psychological difficulties after counseling, we will support them to recover their daily lives as soon as possible in connection with the National Trauma Center Recovery Program.

The funeral process is gradually being completed, with all the victims being handed over to the bereaved families by yesterday, and even if the funeral process is completed, the government will provide careful support and watch until all the difficulties of the bereaved families are resolved.

Choi said most of the accident site will be completed and investigations and analysis will be conducted in earnest to determine the cause of the accident, and the investigation of the cause of the accident should be conducted objectively and transparently based on laws and international standards based on independence and neutrality.

The Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport maintained this principle and asked that the investigation be carried out quickly and fairly by sharing the progress of the investigation from time to time so that there is no concern for the bereaved families.
