Kang Ko, 43, and Jin Lee Seon, 37, had shared photos of their holiday with their little boy in Thailand just hours before boarding their doomed flight home to South Korea.

The youngster was returning with his family on his first trip abroad when he became one of five children under the age of 10 among the 179 people killed as flight 2216 made an emergency landing at Muan International Airport.

Kang worked for the Kia Tigers baseball team. Colleague Jung Woo-young said: "He was so good at his job that everyone liked him." Another of those named was Jongluk Duangmanee, 45, one of two Thai nationals on board the doomed jet.
