What Went Wrong in the Sewol Ferry Disaster?
Political backlash ensued after the tragic sinking of MV Sewol, which claimed the lives of over three-hundred passengers, most of whom were students, five years ago on its journey to Jeju Island, South Korea.
Sung-Hee Choi writes from Gangjeong village on Jeju Island:
It was 2016 when there was a new finding that there was about 405 tons of steel rods for the Jeju navy base construction. It added to the overweight of the Sewol ferry.... http://www.jejuweekly.com/news/articleView.html?idxno=5180. The investigation on the Sewol ferry accident has not been brought with a clear result yet. One thing: the ship was owned by the NIS (National Intelligence Service). Why was the captain rescued early? It is told that he and his crews were forced not to talk something after their being rescued. We do not really know what happened on the day. Still there are many suspicions.
