[Asia Economy Reporter Lee Jung-yoon] The police are considering adding charges of obstruction of business against A (23), who had a junior soldier take the College Scholastic Ability Test (CSAT) on his behalf during military service and was admitted to a university in Seoul.

On the 18th, the Suseo Police Station in Seoul announced that it is reviewing the possibility of applying additional charges of obstructing university admissions work against A. A has been under investigation for charges including obstruction of official duties by deception.

A applied to multiple universities in Seoul using the CSAT scores taken by his junior soldier and was admitted to the Nursing Department at Chung-Ang University, where he registered. After suspicions of proxy testing arose, he reportedly submitted a withdrawal letter on the 13th of last month.

It was investigated that A had his junior soldier, who was attending a well-known private university in Seoul, take the CSAT on his behalf at a high school in Seoul last November. The police are conducting an investigation into A, who was discharged in March and is now a civilian, following a request from the Seoul Metropolitan Office of Education. The military police are handling the investigation of the junior soldier, who is currently on active duty.
