Re: What happened here
Sadly 3 crew killed but I think rescue services picked up 5 other crew. Must have been some bang looking at that.

Re: What happened here
Five people, including third-class navigator Lee Jin-so (20), were killed in the accident, and six others, including first-class navigator Yoo Jun-tae (52), were missing. The captain, Ahn Sang-won (57), and five others were rescued by a fishing boat that was sailing nearby. The hull is badly damaged and is half-sunk.
