On Oct 29, Reuters reported that at least 149 people were killed when a huge crowd celebrating Halloween surged into an alley in a nightlife area of the South Korean capital Seoul.

The 10.20pm melee also left 150 injured.

The disaster is the country’s deadliest since a 2014 ferry sinking that killed 304 people, mainly high school students.
