The South Korean Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport said it will remove the concrete localizer structure that a Jeju Air Boeing 737-800 crashed into at Muan International Airport (MWX). 

The embankment housing the airport’s localizer landing aid antenna was fatally struck on December 29, 2024, when the Jeju Air flight from Bangkok made an emergency landing MXW.  

“Muan International Airport plans to completely remove the existing concrete and reinstall the localizer in a fragile structure,” the ministry said in a statement on January 21, 2025, according to Reuters
