Plane crash in South Korea claims over 170 lives
The incident occurred on Sunday morning when a Jeju Air passenger jet, carrying 175 passengers and six crew members, belly-landed and exploded at Muan International Airport, the Yonhap News Agency reported.
With its landing gear not deployed, the aircraft veered off the runway while landing, skidding across the ground, hitting a concrete wall, and bursting into flames.
Earlier, the South Korean authorities confirmed that 179 people were killed and two people were rescued out of 181 aboard.
Kim Taehyung’s dog Yeontan died in 2024
Kim Taehyung, who is currently fulfilling his mandatory military service took the internet off-guard in 2024 with a heartwrenching post informing fans about the demise of his beloved dog Yeontan. Affectionately called "Tannie”, the Pomeranian left for a heavenly abode.
Meanwhile, V had enlisted for his mandatory military service in 2023. His discharge date is set for June 10, 2025. On the work front, he is rumoured to join the third season of Netflix’s Squid Game. During an interview with BuzzFeed UK, Lee Jung Jae and his co-star Wi Ha Joon were asked directly about the possibility of V joining the cast for the upcoming season. Lee quickly dismissed the topic with a cryptic, “I can’t say anything about that,” while Joon flashed a knowing smile and firmly stuck to a “No comment” response.
