Ferry Sinking in South Korea

I don't know if you guys have heard about the ferry sinking in South Korea or not but it's pretty sad/interesting. On Thursday a ferry headed toward the island of Jeju turned upside down. 462 passengers boarded the vessel, 280 were missing by late that afternoon, and 4 were confirmed dead. Many of the travelers aboard were high school students. One texted his mom, "This might be my last chance to tell you I love you." The cause of the accident is still unknown. Some commuters said they heard a sharp bang when the ship started to tip. The captain of the vessel told some people aboard the ferry not to jump off.

Stay posted,
Nina
