South Korea's Seoul 20,000 people gathered (Japanese Fuji TV Station)
Overseas Network, November 6 According to South Korea's "Korean Ilbo" and Japan's Fuji TV Station on November 6, a week has passed since the stampede accident in Itaewon, South Korea, and South Korean public opinion calls for accountability have been rising. Many people noticed that the police had issued false reports on the stampede accident and angrily denied the police.
0 On the evening of the 5th, a large-scale memorial service was held in the center of Seoul, with about 20,000 people attending. In addition to mourning the victims of the stampede accident, the people also angrily criticized the government and police for their handling of the stampede accident. Several Korean media reported that the police station responsible for the Itaewon 's jurisdiction can reach the scene in 5 minutes, but the police chief insisted on taking a bus and it took an hour to get there. And after the incident, the police station issued a false report saying that the director arrived at the scene "immediately".
A large number of Korean people also believe that the police have known in advance that more than 100,000 people may have gathered on the weekend of the incident, but the security plan only arranged 137 people to be responsible for security, and the public was not fully informed of the dangers on the scene. In addition to pointing anger at the police, many people have called for accountability to the South Korean government. (Overseas Network/Wang Shanning)
