According to the Jeonbuk Provincial Police Agency and Korea Expressway Corporation, the five were driving on the Honam Expressway in a rented Hyundai Elantra. As one of these five, a Mr. Kim, was about to enlist into the army, it was reported that the other four were in the process of sending him off. However, after passing by a road lane blocked by construction, the driver attempted to pull over back into the shoulder and ran into a truck. The clash resulted in the death of the driver and all the passengers. A news clip of the incident is available above.
