source: The reason why it bothers me that all of the attention is centered on Itaewon
The time of the accident: October 26, 2022, at 6PM. D+5 since the accident.
The location of the accident: Bonghwa, Southeastern Province of North Gyeongsang
Cause: Still investigating
Death: Still counting
Missing: 2
Injured: Still counting
3 days before the Itaewon accident, a mine in Bonghwa collapsed and it has been 5 days since the miners were buried and their condition is yet to be confirmed.
The news only reported about this once and no one paid attention to this accident.
This shows that people only care about numbers.

1. [+368][-2] It's really sad to see people dying because they have a dangerous job to make a livingㅠㅠ These Ahjussies must've had no other choices than hanging in there for their families because they're the head of their families...ㅠㅠㅠ
2. [+352][-4] The government should be spending their support fund here, shouldn't they? I didn't even know this accident happened...
3. [+300][-1] These people haven't been found yet, but there is no news being reported about this accident.
4. [+235][-3] I know right. It doesn't make sense that the President interferes in the Itaewon tragedy because a lot of young people were killed there, but never mentioned anything about the miners who were buried in a collapsed mine when they were working. Back then, accidents like this would quickly be reported in news and become a public discussion. They're really quiet about this accident, I didn't even know it happened.
5. [+55][-0] The news reported that 2nd attempt to drill to find the miners failed today... The families of the missing miners voiced that they don't trust the rescue team and demanded the government set up a task force. I heard the missing miners carried 10L of water and coffee powder when they went into the mine, so they will be able to hold on to some extend. I hope they will be found really soon.
