The harrowing final moments of Jeju Air Flight 2216 have left South Korea in mourning after the country's deadliest aviation disaster unfolded at Muan International Airport. Moments before the crash that killed 179 of the 181 people aboard, the Boeing 737-800's pilot made a desperate "Mayday" call, reporting a "bird strike" and requesting a go-around landing. Tragically, the plane skidded off the runway, collided with a concrete barrier, and burst into flames, leaving the aircraft "almost completely destroyed."

South Korea's impeached President Yoon Suk Yeol was arrested on January 15, 2025, after a failed martial law attempt. This historic event marks the first time a sitting president in South Korea has faced arrest. The arrest follows a tense standoff with investigators who raided the presidential residence. Yoon's attempted power grab, including directing soldiers to storm Parliament, led to charges of insurrection. Despite a previous failed arrest attempt on January 3, Yoon voluntarily agreed to appear before investigators before being detained. His arrest escalates South Korea's political crisis and tensions with his supporters.
