As the return journey will also not be easy, we are preparing to bring Jin-woo’s final remains back safely so that we can conduct funeral rites in Korea with family, relatives, and acquaintances present. If you could wait a little longer for our Jin-woo to return safely to Korea until the very end, and offer your condolences, it would be a great source of strength.
