Dozens of people were killed when a Boeing 737-800 exploded on Sunday in South Korea after the plane skidded off a runway and slammed into concrete wall.
The South Korean Jeju Air flight had taken off from Bangkok and was landing at Muan International Airport at approximately 9 a.m. local time when the incident unfolded.
Out of the 181 people who were on board, including passengers and crew, at least 179 people were killed.
Footage of the crash showed that the plane’s landing gear failed to deploy as it skidded down the runway upon landing.
