On April 16, 2014, the #MVSewol #ferry capsized near the southwestern shores of #SouthKorea, with 476 passengers on board, including 325 pupils on a school trip. Very few of them survived because they obeyed the order to stay in their cabins while the ferry was #sinking. Beyond the human tragedy, with 304 lives lost, the disaster sparked widespread social and political upheaval in South Korea. Seven years on, FRANCE 24's team reports on how the terrible event has changed the country. • Subscribe to France 24 now: • http://f24.my/youtubeEN • FRANCE 24 live news stream: all the latest news 24/7 • http://f24.my/YTliveEN • Visit our website: • http://www.france24.com • Subscribe to our YouTube channel: • http://f24.my/youtubeEN • Like us on Facebook: • / france24.english • Follow us on Twitter: • / france24_en
