In the middle of the dark sea, a fishing boat lifts its bottom and turns.

A 39-ton Myeong Min-ho, a 39-ton ship on board, was aboard 7 people, including 4 Korean sailors and 3 Indonesian sailors.

Even if the coast guard tries to enter the ship, rescue work is difficult due to high waves and high winds caused by a storm warning.

Although the sea area of ​​the accident was relatively close to the Jeju port, it was quite possible to rescue the crew, but the inclement weather caught on.

Myeong Min-ho, who struggled with rescue work due to bad weather, was hit by the jeju port breakwater and destroyed within eight hours of the accident.

It was first discovered at sea 1.6 km northwest of Jeju Harbor and was pushed by strong winds and high waves.

The coast guard mobilized 8 ships to find the seven missing sailors and searched the sea at about 6 km from east to west and 5.9 km from north to south, focusing on the port of Jeju.

On the ground, in cooperation with Jeju Island and the military, about 1,000 people were employed to search for the missing crew.

Myeong Min-ho’s ouster is believed to be due to bad weather at the time the storm launched.

As soon as the weather improves, the coast guard plans to put a diver on the breakwater to conduct an underwater search for the missing crew.
