MV Sewol Ferry Disaster Memorials Part 1

Jooeun Kim (Class 3)

Jooeun Kim was born on the 9th of July, 1997. She was 16 when she died.

Jooeun was the youngest child of her family. Her older sister had asked for a younger brother, but still was close with her sister, Jooeun, often going out to eat or to movies with her. Joeeun was bright, and could take care of herself. She often bought the much cheaper things instead of the expensive ones. She was friends with Yejin Jeong and Jiyoon Park, both from the same class. Joeeun's dream was to become a designer.

Her body was recovered and returned to her parents. She now rests at Pyeongtaek Lakeside Memorial Park.

''Today I'm coming to Ninevan for the second time, and it was sadder because you were in your gym uniform. When I first came, I was sad that the jump rope was the same...I came because it was the 1st period of the Sewol issue today, but the tears did not stop at the letter your school teacher read, the song sung by your school's juniors, and the song sung together at the end.
"Goodbye will not be an eternal breakup"
