Relatives of those still missing in the South Korea ferry disaster are shown video of the submerged wreck for the first time on Saturday.

No bodies were visible in the footage they saw.

Grief is spilling over into anger after reports that bodies have been spotted inside the wreck by divers who weren't able to retrieve them.

Some are clinging to the hope, now all but dim, that anyone will be found alive.

Many are outraged by what they see as the slow pace of the search.

Of those 29 have been confirmed dead.

Some 174 were rescued.
