South Korea is currently in a state of mourning following a tragic airliner crash at Muan International Airport. Acting President Choi Sang-mok has declared a week-long mourning period from Sunday to January 4 to honor the victims of the disaster. In a show of solidarity, 17 memorial altars will be set up nationwide to allow citizens to pay their respects.
This somber announcement comes at a time when South Korea is grappling with a significant political crisis. Just recently, the country's parliament made the decision to impeach Prime Minister and acting President Han Duck-soo. This move follows the earlier stripping of powers from President Yoon Suk Yeol due to his controversial declaration of martial law.
The nation is now called upon to come together in unity during this challenging period. The mourning period serves as a time for reflection and remembrance, as the country mourns the lives lost in the tragic plane crash. It is a time for the people of South Korea to stand together in solidarity and support one another as they navigate through these difficult times.
