Hundreds of grieving people camped out at Muan International Airport in South Korea are furious that they have not yet seen the bodies of their loved ones who died after a Jeju Air plane crash-landed on Sunday.

Amid angry shouts, police superintendent general Na Won-o explained that the delay was due to officials taking their time to carefully identify all 179 victims, whose bodies were badly damaged in the crash.

“Can you promise that they will be put back together?” a middle-aged man asked, visibly emotional.

Another person asked for the victims’ remains to be released as they were, but Na said officials wanted to make their best effort to collect and match as many bodies as they could.
