[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Hwang Du-yeol] An employee at a famous toy manufacturing factory in Busan fell into a coma due to a safety accident.


According to the Busan Saha Police Station on the 27th, around 9:20 a.m. on the 15th, a man in his 30s, Mr. A, who was working at a toy manufacturing factory in Jangnim-dong, was hit by an injection mold that fell from a shelf and fell into a coma.


The injection mold is made of steel and can weigh up to several hundred kilograms. The accident occurred when the shelf holding the mold tilted forward.


Emergency responders from the 119 rescue team, who arrived after a nearby colleague reported the incident, transported Mr. A to the hospital, but he suffered severe injuries including a fractured skull and remains unconscious.


Mr. A is known to be the father of 8-year-old twins, adding to the tragedy.



A police official stated, “The site is a workplace with 7 employees, so the Serious Accident Punishment Act does not apply,” and added, “We are investigating whether safety measures were taken by questioning the site manager and other related personnel.”
