In Seoul, South Korea, the country's administration has organized a memorial service to honor the dead at the Halloween party. It was attended by the country's President Eun-Suk-Yul and his wife First Lady Kim Kun Hee. At this time, besides observing a minute of silence, they assured a quick investigation of the incident.
The country's government held a memorial service at a Seoul plaza on Monday (Oct 31) to honor those who died at South Korea's Halloween party. South Korean President Yeon-suk-eul and his wife First Lady Kim Kun-hee were present at the time. Apart from offering floral tributes to the dead, they observed a minute's silence.
After the administrative officials paid their respects, the place was thrown open to the public. Many people got emotional when they came to pay their respects to the 'unfortunate'. They said everyone went to enjoy with friends. But in a moment their joy turned to sadness.
Many have questioned the role of those on duty at the Halloween party, saying that the presence of so many people together was in no way less than a war. This accident would not have happened if those who were in charge of the program had taken care of the movement of people.
The tragic accident in Seoul has been called a 'tragedy' by Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese. It is reported that one Australian citizen died in this accident and several others were injured.
Prime Minister Albanese said, "My deepest condolences to the Australian families who lost their loved ones in this accident." The effect on the people of Seoul is very difficult. Even for the bereaved of our country. I hope the injured get well soon.
More than 100,000 people gathered for a Halloween party in Ethewan on Saturday (October 26) around 11pm local time. Soon after news spread that a star had appeared at the event, the rush started. Many people were overcrowded on narrow roads. More than one and a half hundred people died in it.
