South Korea's Finance Minister and acting president Choi Sang-mok lays a flower at a memorial altar for victims of the Jeju Air plane crash, at Muan Sports Park in Muan on December 30, 2024. The Boeing 737-800 was carrying 181 people from Thailand to South Korea when it crashed on arrival on December 29, killing everyone aboard -- save two flight attendants pulled from the twisted wreckage of the worst aviation disaster on South Korean soil.
