In a solemn scene at Muan International Airport, South Korean officials are meticulously sorting through the grim aftermath of the country’s deadliest aviation disaster in decades. On December 30, 2024, families gathered anxiously to seek information about the victims of Jeju Air Flight 7C2216, which tragically crashed, claiming 179 lives. As authorities began the painstaking recovery of remains from the crash site, it was revealed that the process could take up to ten days due to the condition of many of the bodies, which were extensively damaged and charred. The flight, which originated in Bangkok, attempted to land at the Muan airport before careening into a runway structure, resulting in widespread devastation. Only the two crew members who were seated at the tail survived, amidst debris scattered throughout the scene. More than 600 body parts have been recovered thus far, and while most victims are expected to be identified shortly, the agonizing uncertainty remains for families facing the prolonged wait for closure.
