We begin with the recovery operations in Budapest.
Another body has been found near the tourist boat that sank in the Danube last week.
We turn to our Park Hee-jun for the latest.
Hee-jun, what do you have for us?
Another body, presumed to be a South Korean man,... was found on Wednesday morning, local time.
It was recovered by a Hungarian diver near one of the boat's windows at around 9:21 AM.
It was moved by police to a hospital and is being identified.
So far, 12 South Koreans have been confirmed dead while 14 are still missing.
If the newly found body is also South Korean,... the death toll will be 13, and the number of missing 13.
A total of five bodies have been recovered within the past two days, since the joint operation began Monday all identified as South Koreans.
Many of the bodies still missing... are presumed to be still inside the wreck.
Divers have been unable to search inside due to high flood waters and strong currents.
But we may get more news on the way as operations continue.
We hear that the search and recovery operations will shift focus to salvaging the boats.
Tell us more about their plan from here.
Well, beginning Wednesday, rescue teams will focus more on salvaging the boat.
They have wrapped up their underwater search for the bodies.
Today's plan will involve divers going down and wrapping chains and ropes around the boat so it can be raised.
A crane is expected to arrive at the site Thursday.
Take a listen.
"We will go ahead with the binding process ahead of salvaging the boat and expand our helicopter searches. When the binding's done, the crane 'Clark Adam' that departed 6:40 AM, local time, will stand by in the area. After the crane passes all the way through Margaret Bridge, we will get ready to lift the ship tomorrow, depending on how the preparations proceed."
The 'Clark Adam' is the biggest crane in Eastern Europe.
It could arrive a little later than scheduled, depending on the changing water levels.
Then the actual salvaging process could start on Friday or Saturday.
Now South Korean and Hungarian rescue teams are planning the process very carefully,... to make sure that bodies inside the boat are not lost during the salvaging process.
The front part of the boat is for storage, so people don't get inside that area.
Rather, most of the bodies are presumed to be inside the stern.
But searchers say that part of the ship has been damaged, especially the entrance in the middle.
They plan to block the entrance with nets to make sure the victims' bodies don't slip out while the boat is being lifted.
They'll also break some of the windows,... which will help drain the water out and reduce the pressure inside the boat.
Now that's just one side of the boat.
The other side can't be reached because of the rapid water flow.
Rubber boats will be placed behind the boat to catch any remains that are swept away by the current.
That's all from me at this hour.
But I'll keep bringing in the
