Three people have been confirmed dead following a tragic incident off South Korea's southwestern coast, where a fishing boat carrying 22 people collided with rocks.

According to the South Korean Coast Guard, the crash occurred near Gagyo Island in the Sinan region of South Jeolla Province.

The boat struck the rocks, resulting in fatalities, but 19 survivors were rescued and are reported to be in good health.

The Coast Guard is currently investigating the cause of the collision, and efforts are ongoing to ensure the safety of maritime vessels in the area.

The fishing boat, which was on a routine trip, has sparked concerns over maritime safety protocols, especially in such rocky coastal regions.
