As the twelfth spring since the Sewol ferry disaster arrived, the entertainment industry also commemorated and paid tribute to the 12th anniversary of the tragedy.
On the 16th, actor Kim Ui-seon posted the phrase "REMEMBER 20140416" on his social media to mourn the victims of the Sewol ferry disaster, which marked its 12th anniversary that day.
Kim Ui-seong also selected BTS's song "Spring Day," released in February 2017, as background music. Alongside the song's gentle introduction, the phrase "Remember 20140416" written on a purple-hued background image evoked a sense of sorrow.



Chef Raymond Kim also mourned the victims on the same day. He stated, "Twelve years have passed helplessly. During those 12 years, disasters continued to occur. I am scared, overwhelmed, and angry," while referencing several tragedies.
He further confessed his feelings, stating, "This is not about left-right ideologies or the political sphere, but rather from the heart of a parent and the heart of a human being. Above all, that day, the 16th, 2014, was the day my angel's existence was confirmed, but since the angels of others have gone to heaven, I will remember them and never forget them in the future," while releasing a photo containing a yellow ribbon badge and a memory bracelet.
Broadcaster Kim Na-young also posted an image of a yellow ribbon, saying, "It was such a bright day. I will never forget it."
The Sewol ferry disaster, which occurred on the 16th, 2014, when the passenger ship Sewol sank in waters near Jindo, South Jeolla Province, while en route from Incheon to Jeju, marking the 12th anniversary this year, resulted in the deaths or disappearances of 304 of the 476th passengers on board.
