On the 28th, the official YouTube channel of the National Police Agency uploaded a 1 minute and 18 seconds video titled "The reason why the woman was so angry."

According to the released video, around 1 a.m. on the 14th, a woman identified as A was wandering on a street in Jung-gu, Seoul, and entered a nearby public restroom building.

A immediately began smashing the restroom window with the fire extinguisher she was holding. She grabbed the extinguisher with both hands and swung it 2 to 3 times, shattering the glass window into pieces.

A's erratic behavior did not stop there. She took the fire extinguisher outside and started damaging vehicles parked on the street. When the extinguisher fell to the ground, she picked it up and even threw it toward a car.
