People Power Party leader Dong-hyuk Jang visited Baengnyeong Island in Incheon on the 29th to inspect the readiness posture of frontline military units. Representative Jang will pay his respects at the memorial tower for the 46 crew members of the Cheonan and visit the unit to receive reports on the current situation and operational preparedness. He is also scheduled to visit an artillery battalion to encourage the soldiers' hard work. Recently, a flying object presumed to be a North Korean aircraft was detected near Baengnyeong Island, causing fishing boats to make emergency evacuations. Representative Jang is expected to hear about the details of this incident and urge thorough countermeasures.
