A flight from Bangkok to Seoul has become the most deadly crash in Korea’s history

A fiery crash of Jeju Air flight 7C2216 at South Korea's Muan International Airport on Sunday resulted in 179 fatalities, marking the deadliest airline disaster in the country's history. The Boeing 737-800, carrying 175 passengers and six crew from Bangkok, belly-landed after a reported bird strike, leading to an explosion. Two crew members survived with injuries. Investigations focus on potential mechanical failures and weather conditions. The crash, Jeju Air's first fatal accident, challenges its safety record and comes amid political turmoil, with South Korea’s acting president pledging full support for victims’ families. Flights at Muan Airport were suspended following the tragedy.
