Asiana A321 safely lands after damaged by storm

Asiana A321 in route from CJU to GMP was severely hit by thunderstorm and hailstone at 1000ft above ground while it was making the final approach to GMP.

While its nose radome and cockpit windows have been damaged, it finally landed at GMP safely.

The news reports that the A321 had to go around at GMP to have visual confirmation from the ground that its landing gears have been properly deployed.
