Individual identification is an important part in medicolegal field especially in mass bodies including mass disaster. We have had experienced 6 mass identifications since 1989,
among which 68 victims in KAL accident at July, 27, 1989 and 142 bodies being torn up and carried away from a park cemetry by flood at Sept., 10, 1990.
Fortunately, individual identification has been accompli: hed in a satisfactory fashion to date. However, the manner of identification varies with the situations when it arises. Therefore, for the efficient and rapid identification, it is essential to train special investi-
gators as well as development of organization in charge of that affair, and establishment of basic principles and proper plans.
