I have lost colleagues I saw every day. And I've also lost my passengers. While the exact cause is still unclear, we're all struggling and heartbroken, unable to fully comprehend this situation. Even the word 'sadness' cannot express the sorrow... There are no words that can describe this grief perfectly.
Nevertheless, we continue to greet passengers again. Though I feel like I could break down and cry at the slightest touch, but I clench my teeth and do my best for the passengers who trust us enough to board the plane, even in this situation. Our maintenance engineers are doing their best as always, knowing that my precious colleagues were on board. We are all giving everything we have.
Various news articles are pouring out, and too many stories are circulating. As someone who works in the field, I have often felt resentment toward the company for neglecting the frontline workers. But even with that resentment, I have never allowed it to impact the care and service I provide to my passengers.
We cannot even cry openly. It’s only after the flight is over, after all the passengers have disembarked, that we allow ourselves to shed the tears we’ve been holding back. I'm also worried that I won't be able to see off my departed colleague due to my schedule.
It breaks my heart to see how much our maintenance engineers are struggling. They've always done their best. We trust them completely when we board the planes. Our pilots enter the cockpit again with that heavy responsibility. We believe in and respect the pilots' choices.
We have done our best. We are doing our best. And we will continue to do so in the future. We believe that the late pilots had done their best. I respect my colleagues who did their best to reassure passengers until the very end and prepared for an evacuation. I hope their last moments are respected.
Journalists-nim, please write refined articles... Please write real news without being influenced by anyone's power...
Tomorrow, I will be flying again. I will do my best for the safe and secure journey of the passengers I will meet.
