us.flyasiana.com - What's up, hacked?

Tried to go into my Asiana account just now ... http://us.flyasiana.com/

I guess a few of their other sublinks are also offline ... yikes!

On their facebook page today:
Asiana Airlines confirms that DNS(Domain Name System) of Asiana Airlines has been compromised where users are re-directed to another website when www.flyasiana.com URL is keyed in or customers connect our application. It does not affect our internal system or data and we reported it to KISA(Korea Internet & Security Agency) immediately. The matter is expected to be fully recovered soon.
Asiana Airlines apologise for any inconvenience caused.

If it's just a DNS issue, that means that somebody likely DDOS'ed whatever DNS provider they use. It's a more common issue than people think.

Typical. It feels like something has been wrong with the website multiple times recently. I remember especially when a lot of users' personal details were hacked. The mobile app was also crashing all day yesterday.
