A witness to the tragic plane crash in Muan, South Korea, expressed deep sorrow and shock over the devastating incident that unfolded on Sunday. Im Young Hak, the owner of a seafood restaurant near the crash site, recounted the harrowing scene to Reuters. He described seeing a massive plume of dark smoke and hearing multiple explosions around 9 a.m. local time on Sunday.

Initially mistaking the noise for an oil tanker accident due to the presence of many oil tankers in the vicinity, Young Hak soon realized that a plane had crashed. He speculated that wild geese might have been a factor in the disaster.
