According to the Donghae Coast Guard Wednesday, divers found her body at a depth of 35.6 meters about 5:22 p.m.
The Seoul resident, surnamed Kim, 37, went missing soon after getting into the water with four other people.
Their diving instructor said he could not find her immediately because the water was muddy.

Police said they are investigating the cause of her death.
