A shop in Itaewon, South Korea threw a Halloween party on the evening of October 29th. Unexpectedly, a large-scale stampede occurred – 156 people have been killed so far. How to recover from pain will be a difficult process for many South Koreans. Recently, a father revealed that his daughter had booked him a birthday dinner on the same day so that he and his wife could enjoy the two worlds, and the daughter also sent a text saying “Thank you for your parenting.” , but the accident happened.After that, from now on, people will be separated forever.
These days have been particularly tough for many South Koreans, as 156 victims were killed in the Itaewon stampede, most of them young! Many parents could not accept this, and shouted “my son”, unable to believe that the children who ate and laughed together a few days ago were separated forever!

According to a Hankyoreh report, a 58-year-old father sadly revealed in an interview that his daughter ordered him a birthday dinner only on the day of the incident: “My wife and I were enjoying a delicious dinner, but all night I can’t even reach my daughter’s phone and I never could have imagined that the 1 in 10,000,000 chance would happen to my daughter. “
The father also said that the last text his daughter sent him before his death joked: “Thank you dad for the kindness to raise me, I’ll give it back to you in the future, haha”, but I didn’t expect this promise to be someone else. Nor can it be achieved.
However, the stampede to Itaewon may have been averted from the start. On the 1st, the police announced the contents of the 11 reports before the incident, but the police responded superficially and concluded the call with “the police are on the scene”. She also questioned the outside world about improper handling, because if the police really took her seriously, maybe this incident wouldn’t happen. South Korean President Yoon Seok-wyeh was also dissatisfied with this and said the punishment would be imposed.
