    Reading about people getting crushed like that last year generated a new fear for me. At 40yrs old I thought I was passed that phase! Now if I am tucked in to tight or myself dogs are on either side of myself legs in bed, or otherwise unable to move a part of my body I start to panic. It’s a strange, new, shitty feeling.

    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    One year ago, more than 150 people died in a crowd crush in South Korea’s capital after being pushed into a narrow street during Halloween festivities.

    Since then the country’s leaders have faced stark criticism with investigations opened against politicians and the police force.

    Charges have been laid and an impeachment has occurred, but what else has happened to prevent the disaster occurring again?

        The problem was that it wasn’t organized. It was just the first Halloween in Itaewon since COVID and the police didn’t plan for there to be such a big turnout. The annual foreign food festival was held a few weeks before Halloween, and the district office closed down the main streets to hold it. They should’ve did the same for Halloween, but hindsight is 50/50 or whatever.
