Wider Image: Ferry Victims' Cherished Bedrooms
Swords belonging to Jeong Cha-woong, a high school student who died in the Sewol ferry disaster, are seen in his room in Ansan April 8, 2015. His dream was to be a Haedong kendo master. Nearly a year after the Sewol ferry sank on April 16, 2014, with the death of 250 students, some families keep their children’s bedrooms intact to remember and honour their loved ones. More than 300 people, most of them students and teachers from Danwon High School, are dead, or missing and presumed dead, after the Sewol ferry sank on a routine trip from the port of Incheon, near Seoul, to the holiday island of Jeju.
