03 · IMAGE CONTEXT

Image analysis

This is a later SBS editorial visual created to explain the 1976 event. It is not an original photograph of the Seoul sky or a military recording, so its depicted lights or aircraft should not be read as the observed object's shape. It serves as an entry point to reporting on the anti-aircraft fire, casualties and official explanation.
