'Answer Sheet Leak' Gwangju Private High School Student Police Investigation

[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Park Jin-hyung] One student has been booked in connection with the answer sheet leak incident at a private high school in Gwangju Metropolitan City.

On the 25th, the Gwangju Western Police Station announced that they are investigating student A on charges of obstructing academic administration (obstruction of business).

The incident came to light after a classmate raised suspicions.

Classmates alleged that the contents of a note A threw into the trash and the answers to four subjects matched during the first semester final exams held from the 11th to the 13th, raising suspicions of answer sheet leakage.

They claimed that after the exam time ended, they checked the note A had thrown into the trash and found it matched the answers for the subjects. The subjects were Earth Science, Korean History, Mathematics II, and Life Science.

Additionally, during the exam, four Life Science questions that were initially erroneous were corrected, resulting in the answers being revised, but it was reported that A wrote down the answers before the corrections were made.

According to the Gwangju Metropolitan Office of Education's verification, A scored 100 points each in Earth Science and Mathematics II, 93 points in Korean History, and 86 points in Life Science.

A would have scored 100 points in Life Science if the four questions had not been corrected during the exam.

Because of this, there is strong suspicion that the answer sheets were leaked in advance at the school.

A's first-year internal grade is reported to be in the second grade range.

The police started an investigation at the request of the school, and the Gwangju Metropolitan Office of Education conducted an on-site investigation after receiving the report.
