Still the parted Navy ship is under the Western sea of Korea. The rescue team found two bodies near the broken area. Navy and the Coast Guard gave up more rescue action and decided to pull the parts up. It will take about a month to lift and draw the ship to the coast. The Navy initially mentioned that the oxigen inside can gives 69 hours of possible survival time for the sailors inside the cabin, but it turns out there was no sure for the theory. The initial time of the accident announced differently as time goes by (9:45 to 9:30 to 9:25 to 9:20). The dead sailors' family got a notice that they should leave the Navy apartment in 6 months. The fact that a naval officer took every cell phone right after they rescued added more suspicion on the government or the Department of Defense's covering the truth.
Meanwhile, the survivors finally had a chance to meet the families of sailors who are still in the sea yesterday. The survivors were taking medical treatment at military hospital. That was also an issue, because there was a closer hospital, but they were in the military hospital and isolated from the media. Anyway, the survivors and the sad family had a one hour of meeting and the survivors' interviews were quite consistent.
Still the mystery about the reason of sinking is not solved. Professionals from other contries come to investigate the tragedy. To make matters worse, a Korean fishing vessel was hijacked by a Somalian pirate. They asked 30 million dollars for releasing the vessel.
People say that when you go out of your country, you become a patriot. I hope this is the worst news, and wish to hear good news for these issues.
