South Korea’s Prime Minister is promising a “thorough investigation” into a horrifying Halloween stampede in Seoul that killed at least 154 people.
Han Duck-soo assured the government will “do its best to make necessary improvements” to prevent another disaster from happening again.
He and Seoul Mayor Oh Se-hoon paid tribute at a memorial altar for the victims, in front of Seoul City Hall.
Saturday’s deadly crowd surge happened at a sloped, narrow alley in Seoul’s Itaweon neighbourhood, which is a popular nightlife district, with witnesses and survivors recalling a “hell-like” chaos, of people falling onto one another “like dominoes”.
