[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Kim Yong-woo] A vehicle equipped with a "changing license plate" reminiscent of the Chinese traditional opera "Bian Lian," where masks on the face are swiftly switched, was caught by the police.


This variable license plate came to the police's attention after being shared on an online community.


On the 16th, the Yeonje Police Station in Busan announced that they are investigating a man in his 40s, Mr. A, on suspicion of violating the Automobile Management Act.


According to the police, Mr. A was caught on the afternoon of the 14th at 3:24 PM on a road in front of a restaurant in Yeonje-gu, Busan, for attaching a device that changed the license plate of his Audi passenger car.


The police responded to a citizen's report that a vehicle with a variable license plate was driving and searched the vehicle.


The police found a roll screen hidden inside the upper part of the license plate and a forged license plate, and are conducting an investigation into Mr. A for violating the Automobile Management Act.


The citizen who reported the incident also posted a message titled "Audi A7 with a license plate changing in real-time" on the online community "Bobaedream" the day after the report.



Under the current Automobile Management Act, changing or covering license plates is illegal.
