A total of 33 South Koreans were on board, Seoul's foreign ministry said, confirming the seven dead were Korean. "Our services have recorded the death of seven people," Pal Gyorfi, a spokesman for Hungarian emergency services, said early Thursday morning. "A further 21 people are missing," a Hungarian police spokesman Kristof Gal told AFP. The temperature of the river water is between 10 and 15 degrees, according to local media. The accident happened on a popular part of the Danube river for pleasure trips, from where passengers can view the city and parliament building illuminated at night.
