On 10 August 1994, the Airbus A300 serving the route overran the runway on landing at Jeju International Airport in poor weather and burst into flames.

[2] On arrival at Jeju, shortly after 11:00 local time, the weather was poor, with driving rain and winds of up to 56 knots (29 m/s; 104 km/h; 64 mph) brought about by Typhoon Doug.

On their second attempt, the flaps were selected at a reduced setting (CONF3) due to the risk of windshear, which meant that the approach speed was higher than usual.

[1] In command was 52-year-old Canadian Captain Barry Edward Woods and the first officer was 36-year-old Korean Chung Chan Kyu (Hangul: 정찬규, RR: Jeong Chan-gyu).

According to South Korean authorities, the first officer had attempted to initiate a go-around while the captain was determined to land the aircraft and bring it to a full stop.
