South Korea Police Raid Transport Ministry, Korea Airports Corp Again Over Jeju Air Crash The latest police raids on the transport ministry, Korea Airports Corp, and Busan Regional Office are a stark reminder that South Korea's aviation sector has a long way to go in terms of accountability and transparency.
The investigation into the Jeju Air crash, which killed 179 people in December 2024, is part of a broader pattern of negligence and cover up that has marred the country's aviation record.
The repeated raids on government agencies and corporations involved in the disaster highlight the complexity and depth of the issue.
