Could this also have been activated in the Jeju air crash from the initial bird strike?

According to wikipedia, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jeju_Air_Flight_2216#Aircraft , Jeju was running different engines then listed in the video as impacted.

No, that aircraft was a 737-800 (NG), whereas the LRD is only on the LEAP engines of the 737 MAX...

IIRC, that was a 737-800 not a 737 MAX 8.
