Following the deadly Jeju Air accident, the government ordered low cost carriers to reduce flight times, boost pilot training and expand maintenance crews.

The South Korean Transport Ministry announced on Wednesday that the concrete feature would be removed from Muan International Airport, according to Reuters. Most other international airports simply mount similar arrays on breakaway posts to allow planes to overrun the pavement across flat ground.

The South Korean government will review safety systems associated with emergency landings at airports across the country following the fatal Jeju Air crash, which killed 179 people. The plan includes removing the concrete embankment at Muan International Airport.

South Korea will remove a concrete structure at the runway of one of its southern airports, the scene of a plane crash that killed all but two of the 181 people on board last month

South Korea will extend runway safety areas and redesign infrastructure after the crash of a Jeju Air Co. flight last month that killed almost everyone on board, sparking criticism that the design of the airport might have exacerbated the accident.

South Korean authorities are still investigating the cause of the recent air disaster at Muan International Airport. Some are blaming a concrete embankment at the end of the airport runway, which will now be removed.

South Korea will tear down concrete walls at several airports, including Muan International Airport, after the Jeju Air plane crash in December.

The black boxes holding the flight data and cockpit voice recorders for the crashed Jeju Air flight that left 179 people dead stopped recording four minutes before the disaster, South Korea's transport ministry said Saturday.

The deadliest plane crash in South Korea's history is triggering a change at the country's airports. The BBC reports the concrete barriers that contain navigation systems at seven airports will be altered in the wake of the crash,
