<Anchor> In



a situation where it is difficult to even check whether they are alive or not, the families of the missing people wandered the streets and hospitals of Itaewon overnight to find the families who had lost contact.

The Hannam-dong Community Center, where the missing persons report center was located, and the hospital where the casualties were transported, were filled with mournful cries.



This is reporter Kim Bo-mi.



<Reporter> The



family rushed to the hospital after being informed that they were transferred to the emergency room right after the accident.



As soon as the identity of the deceased is confirmed, he collapses to the floor.



[what should we do.

(You have to check your face.) What should I do...

.]



Daughter who went to Itaewon with her boyfriend on her first Halloween Day as an adult, got a crying call from her boyfriend late at night and ran to the scene, but it was impossible to find her daughter.



[Family of the missing person: (at the scene of the accident) They don't let you in because you're going.

Let only your boyfriend in, and your parents should check it out.

No. ]



Even though it was sunny, I couldn't find where her daughter's body was transported, so I had to go around the hospital in Seoul.



[Family of the missing person: Mok-dong Ewha University Hospital also goes...

.

I'm running around now and there's no income.]



Families who stayed up all night awake in the waiting room for the missing person at the Hannam-dong Community Center.



I was just sobbing at the death confirmation notice.



[Family of the Missing: What is the crushing accident? How in the world is this happening?

I studied hard and it's all over...

.]



Foreigners had a harder time finding the missing person.



A friend who was traveling with me from Australia was found at the scene of the tragic death, but it is not known where the body has since been moved.



The missing report center and the consulate kept answering that they did not know, and in the end had no choice but to go around the hospital mortuary.



[Missing acquaintance: The consulate could not help either.

They didn't even know where my friend was.

My family is in Australia...

.

No one knows who my friend is, and no one seems to be helping me.]
