Did the poor passenger die before or after the captain decided to land in Honkers?

If he didn’t respond to CPR why emergency land?

 

now the airline is on the hook for his body to Korea....

 

i am surprised more people don’t kick the buket in flight....

not good publicity for an already stressed out carrier.  wonder if the lady that became ill was worried about the ghost of the deceased passenger?
