Long Description: Hi, I’m Garam Kim, a writer over at SBS(Seoul Broadcasting System) Broadcasting Company in South Korea.
We’ve received a report of a UFO sighting at our broadcasting station, and we’ve made various attempts to confirm whether this object is indeed a UFO. However, we were unable to determine its nature.
Consequently, we have reached out here for assistance.
The sighting summary and details are as follows:
[Sighting Summary]
I witnessed two unusual elliptical objects resembling UFOs, which exhibited unique flight patterns and disappeared without sound.
[Sighting Detail]
The following eyewitness details are the information reported to the Korean broadcasting company, SBS.
At first, I witnessed a UFO inside my house. There were two brightly shining elliptical objects. I have seen airplanes passing by frequently, but this didn’t look like the usual airplanes. I thought it was nothing special, but 15 minutes later, I went out into the yard, and a neighbor lady shouted, “What is that?” When I looked up at the sky, there were still two objects floating in the sky. Suddenly, the lights disappeared, and then they reappeared next to another glowing object. They continued to blink and move before disappearing. There was no sound, and there have been no military exercises with flares or anything of the sort in the vicinity.
We even launched fireworks into the sky, but the flying pattern and the way the lights blinked were completely different from those objects. We also tried flying drones, but it was impossible for drones to move and disappear that quickly. Moreover, it’s not allowed to fly drones in this area during the evening hours. We attempted various methods to replicate a similar shape and behavior, but we couldn’t recreate the flying pattern and glowing objects seen in the footage. We also consulted with video analysis experts, but there were no signs of manipulation or editing, and they found it difficult to determine the identity of these objects. Therefore, I decided to seek assistance here.
