Halloween celebrations in South Korea ends up with a huge disaster
Yesterday, in Seoul, the capital of South Korea, tens of thousands of teenagers and young adults gathered in the popular nightlife neighborhood - Itaewon to celebrate the 2022 Halloween. The crowd was so big that it was difficult to move around or even breathe - as reported by the people who were there. Suddenly partygoers started pushing each other and shouting, which caused mass panic. A lot of people were fainting and falling on each other, which ended tragically. About 82 people from around the world who wanted to have fun in Seol were injured and about 151 died.
It's a horrible disaster, which befell these people. The youth wanted to have fun after a long time of restrictions related to Covid pandemia. Young agers need to party and spend time with people to develop socially and create memories. Unfortunately, the Seul residents' fun ended with a huge tragedy. The innocent party turned into real horror. I can't even imagine how bad the families of the victims can feel right now. Such tragedies caused by a huge amount of people gathered in one place have happened many times before, in such crowds, panic spread out really quickly. People during stressful situations really often start to act in the most stupid and irrational way, making the situation more dangerous. Unfortunately, such events are taking place when a lot of people want to have fun, this situation shows that we should be alert at every moment and maybe avoid such huge crowds.
