I am overwhelmed with grief.
My deepest condolences to the deceased.
I also extend my heartfelt sympathy to the citizens who are plunged into sorrow and confusion by this sudden tragic news.
The Seoul city administration must continue firmly and without interruption, following Mayor Park Won-soon's philosophy of prioritizing safety and welfare.
As of today, I have assumed the role of acting mayor.
All Seoul city officials, led by the vice mayors and heads of departments, will unite to carry out city administration duties without any disruption.
Especially as the COVID-19 situation remains severe and rapidly changing.
We will do everything possible to ensure the safety of our citizens. For a steady administration, we ask for the citizens' cooperation as well.
Once again, my deepest condolences to the deceased.
