South Korea: 151 people died in a stampede, many suffer cardiac arrest | Oneindia News *News
As many as 151 people were killed and around 150 were injured in a Halloween stampede in South Korea’s capital Seoul, with many people suffering cardiac arrest.
In a major blunder during the Paris Olympics opening ceremony, South Korean athletes were mistakenly introduced as North Korean delegates. The mistake was highlighted by both French and English announcers, although the subtitles correctly identified them. This gaffe comes at a time of heightened tensions between the two Koreas. South Korea's sports ministry has lodged a formal complaint, and the International Olympic Committee has issued an apology. Watch the full story and see the reactions from both South Korea and the Olympic organisers.
