On November 23, 1996, the Associated Press (AP) in Seoul, South Korea, posted a
story about a daylight sighting of a disk-shaped UFO that was witnessed by thousands of
Koreans at 7:20 A.M., during rush-hour traffic. The story, entitled "UFO Footage Stirs
Sensation in S. Korea," described the event and noted that it was videotaped and aired by
a local television network.
The television pictures showed footage of a shining object floating motionless in the
early morning sky, suspended in midair for about ten minutes before it suddenly
disappeared. While skeptics attributed the event to conventional air traffic, according to
AP, South Korean Air Force officials stated that there were no scheduled military or
civilian aircraft flying in the area at the time when the object was allegedly sighted.
According to the published reports, South Korea had been overtaken by "UFO fever" in
recent months as numerous sightings—documented by local photographers—have
received widespread and prominent coverage in newspapers through-out the country.
Observers in South Korea said the flying pattern of the object was identical to another
unidentified flying object sighted in 1995. The same day, at 7:30 RM. PST, CNN World
Report reported the "cigar shaped UFO" over Seoul. According to CNN, a number of
witnesses recorded video footage of the UFO and this footage accompanied the CNN
report. The incident was also reported in the United States by Reuters, making it one of
the rare UFO events reported by the mainstream media.
