Sinking.
The vessel was reportedly transporting 21 people off the southwest coast of South Korea near Chuja Island. During the night on 6 September, high waves swamped the vessel and the captain ordered those aboard "Dolgorae" to abandon ship. The vessel capsized almost immediately with some passengers being swept away by the waves. The rest clung to the capsized hull of "Dolgorae", with only three still holding on until they were rescued ten hours after the vessel capsized. 
Rescue and aftermath.
At 20:40, a call was placed with the South Korean Coast Guard Chuja Safety Center by another fishing boat after "Dolgorae" had not answered the second vessel's hails. The Coast Guard dispatched three patrol vessels. Meanwhile, the Safety Center was calling the listed passengers. Four were deemed not to have taken the boat, while three unregistered passengers had taken their place. Three people were rescued from the capsized hull of "Dolgorae". Ten people were found dead and eight remained missing. More than 50 Republic of Korea Navy and South Korean Coast Guard vessels, as well as a Lynx helicopter and a P-3C maritime patrol plane were involved in the search for the eight missing. Of the three unregistered passengers, two were found dead and one was rescued. An investigation was commenced and among the findings was that the passengers and crew were not wearing their lifejackets.
