침몰 3년만에 항구로 가는 세월호…오후 목포신항 도착 • The Sewol-ho ferry has arrived at its final destination of Mokpo -- almost three years after it sank in waters off Korea's southwestern coast,... leaving 304 people dead. • The vessel will soon undergo an investigation to find the exact cause of the disaster,... and hopefully recover the remains of the nine bodies that are still unaccounted for. • For the latest,... let's go live to our Kim Min-ji, who is at Mokpo New Port, where the vessel has just docked. • Min-ji, the semi-submersible transporting the ferry arrived sooner than expected? • That's right, Daeun • The semi-submersible -- with the Sewol-ho on board -- arrived here at Mokpo New Port just about an hour ago. • The vessel's last voyage comes one-thousand-80 days after it capsized off Korea's southwestern coast.... and six days after it was salvaged from the sea. • The semi-submersible covered a distance of about 105 kilometers today. • The journey was initially expected to take about eight hours,... but took about two hours less than that. • The ferry was escorted by five maritime police patrol ships,... and some of the relatives of the nine missing passengers still unaccounted for followed behind on a barge. • Well it's good that there were no delays. Could you give us a rundown of what happens next? • Sure. • Over the course of about three days,... seawater and oil will be drained from the vessel and the ferry will be detached from the semi-submersible. • That's expected to take some time because there are 50 attachment sites securing the ferry to the semi-submersible. • Then a module transporter will be used to get the vessel onto land -- which will take about a day. • So all in all, officials expect the transfer to take about four days in all,... provided the weather remains favorable and there are no problems with the equipment. • After that, the vessel will be disinfected and fumigated, which is expected to take about a week. • After that's complete, they will begin the search for the nine missing bodies... and an investigation into the exact cause of the sinking. • The disaster left 304 people dead, most of them high school students, in April 2014. • A special committee tasked with the investigation will work with the families of the missing to map out a search plan by early April. • Da-eun? • Visit ‘Arirang News’ Official Pages • Facebook(NEWS): / newsarirang • Homepage: http://www.arirang.com • Facebook: / arirangtv • Twitter: / arirangworld • Instagram: / arirangworld
