Ahead of the one-year anniversary of the Itaewon disaster, a documentary was produced overseas that intensively analyzed the cause and process of the Itaewon disaster.

On the 17th local time, the U.S. Paramount company메이저사이트 released a two-part documentary about the tragedy that occurred in Itaewon on October 29 last year through its own OTT channel Paramount+.

This documentary, titled ‘Crush’, reconstructed the scene of the incident based on 1,500 hours of footage, including hearings and scene footage from survivors’ cell phones and CCTV , without any narration explaining the content .

In addition, we intensively analyzed the process and causes of the disaster that occurred in a narrow alley using computer graphics.

This documentary interviewed 22 people, including medical staff and emergency responders, including those who were rescued at the scene. Among them were people who experienced the incident at the scene, such as an American student who persuaded his friend to go to Itaewon with him and survived alone, and a Korean who had to watch his friend lose consciousness after being crushed by a crowd of people.

In an interview partially released through the trailer, he said, “Some people call what happened in Itaewon an accident, but it was not an accident,” and argued that the Itaewon disaster should be viewed as a man-made disaster rather than a simple accident.

The documentary also showed recordings of 11 phone calls received by the police at the time and pointed out that the police failed to respond properly at the time of the incident.

Josh Gaynor, a documentary producer, said in an interview with the British Guardian, “The Itaewon disaster was neither a terrorist attack nor a shooting incident, but innocent young people having a good time and becoming victims of an unimaginable incident.” “It is remembered as a trauma not only by those who were there, but by all Koreans,” he explained.

However, this documentary is currently not available in Korea. The video has been uploaded to Paramount+, but when you press the play button, a ‘404

error’ appears saying the video cannot be found, and the trailer posted on the official YouTube account only shows a screen saying the video cannot be played. JTBC asked through various channels, including Panamount and the video production company, why the video cannot be viewed in Korea, but was unable to receive a specific answer. The Itaewon Disaster Citizen’s Response Committee said in a phone call with JTBC that they are looking into the exact cause of the video not being viewable.
