Flying on his way back to the Vatican, Pope Francis sent his last message of blessing to complete his five-day visit to South Korea.

As Shepherd One was over the Yellow Sea, the pilot read the message through the air traffic control frequency, saying the pontiff prayed for peace on the Korean Peninsula.

Hoping for God's blessings, the pope also extended his deep gratitude to President Park Geun-hye and the Korean people.
