A Teacher Who Let Middle School Students Drive Without a License and Committed Sexual Abuse

Severe Abuse During Group Trip Under the Pretext of Historical Exploration
Victims Number Up to 20... Authorities and Police Launch Investigation

A middle school teacher in Jeonbuk has been reported for forcing middle school students to drive without a license and sexually abusing them, prompting education authorities and the police to launch an investigation.

According to a Yonhap News report on the 17th, A, a teacher in his 30s at a middle school in Jangsu-gun, Jeonbuk, took students on trips to nearby cities around Jangsu using his own vehicle on weekends and holidays from April to May under the pretext of a history exploration education program. During this time, A forced the students to drive at speeds of 100 km/h and sexually abused them by blowing air on their genitals with an air gun installed at a golf course. The students, who had to drive at high speeds on congested roads, are reported to be suffering from severe trauma.

It did not stop there. A also subjected the students to harsh treatment such as making them get hit by baseballs flying at 90 km/h at a baseball stadium and sing songs while shirtless on the highway. He also made the students play an "Ideal Type World Cup," where they chose their favorite women by mentioning female teachers and female students from the same school, and sexually objectified a specific female teacher.

The provincial education office and the Jeonbuk Education Human Rights Center received the damage report on the 15th and immediately began an investigation. It was confirmed that 20 students were abused by teacher A, including 8 second-year and 12 third-year students. Despite the large number of victims and the prolonged abuse, the facts were revealed late because A had strictly warned the students not to disclose anything that happened during the history exploration. In particular, A meticulously prohibited the use of mobile phones while with the students and reassured parents by saying that he only took students he especially liked on the field trip.

The Jeonbuk Education Human Rights Center has suspended teacher A from duty and launched an investigation into the human rights violations. The police and Jangsu-gun are also investigating teacher A on charges of child abuse and sexual harassment.
