Higher Education Minister Simon Harris visited a memorial to the 159 people killed in a crowd crush during Halloween celebrations in Seoul last year. Exactly a year on from the tragedy, I had an opportunity to explain to him what it was like to be there that night and how it effected the the Irish and local communities, businesses in the area and the nation in general.
Minister Harris left a note expressing his condolences over what he described as a horrific, tragic loss.
