Five crew members who fell overboard from a cargo ship off the southwest coast of Seogwipo on Jeju Island have all been rescued. The Coast Guard responded to a report received at 4:47 p.m. and completed the operation within about an hour, safely retrieving all aboard a life raft. The rescued foreign nationals are in stable condition.
President Lee Jae-myung reaffirmed on April 3 the government's push to abolish statutes of limitations for criminal and civil cases involving state violence while honoring Jeju April 3 massacre victims. Prime Minister Kim Min-seok vowed at a Jeju Island ceremony to uncover the truth of the 1948 event and restore victims' honor. The pledges mark the 78th anniversary of the uprising crackdown.
