  "summary": "South Korea is sending another disaster relief team to Nepal to help with post-flood reconstruction and recovery efforts. The team, called the Korea Disaster Relief Team (KDRT), will consist of eight members, including officials from the foreign ministry, firefighters, Korea International Cooperation Agency personnel, and medical staff. They will depart on a KC-330 military transport aircraft.\n\nAccording to The Korea Times, the team will arrive in Nepal on Friday and focus mainly on reconstruction and recovery operations during its seven-day mission. A small number of search and rescue personnel will also be part of the team.\n\nNine Koreans went missing in Nepal on August 26 after massive floods and landslides hit the Rasuwa District near the Nepal-Tibet border while they were working at a hydropower plant construction site. Nepal has shifted its focus from search and rescue to reconstruction and recovery and has asked for support from South Korea.",
