Local Online Community Buzz

Two months ago, a teacher at an elementary school in Daejeon made an extreme choice due to malicious complaints. News that a parent accused of being the perpetrator in this case was spotted in another area of Daejeon has stirred up the local online community.


On the 4th, a post titled "OO Elementary School Murderer’s Family" was uploaded on a local online community. The author, Mr. A, wrote, "OO Elementary School, 5th grade, class O, OOO. The transfer student arrived just yesterday and has been attending an academy since a week ago. The mother brought fish-shaped bread to the academy and told everyone to eat it together. Amazing," he began.

Mr. A criticized, "You killed an innocent person, yet your own child is precious to you?" He also expressed anger, saying, "Those who say 'Accept them as part of the neighborhood. If you abuse power, you become the same kind of person'?have they even properly read the article once? Do they think this is something a person should do?"


He continued with concern, "There are stories that (the perpetrator parent's child) choked a friend as if it were a heroic tale, gets angry easily over trivial matters, and it seems the child already has anger management issues among the kids." He added, "I plan to call the school on Monday. The academy should also be informed of the situation."


Although the truth of Mr. A’s post has not been verified, it has received about 50 supportive comments. Nearby residents also voiced their condemnation. Comments included, "I will also call the school to complain," "I will file a complaint with the principal’s office," and "It seems the teacher must have had a hard time."

Earlier in September, a teacher in his 40s, Mr. B, working at an elementary school in Daejeon, made an extreme choice. Mr. B, a 20-year veteran teacher, had been working at an elementary school in Yuseong-gu, Daejeon since 2019 and suffered from malicious complaints by parents. In 2020, he was even falsely accused of child abuse. Although the child abuse accusation was later dismissed, he continued to suffer from ongoing trauma.


Immediately after news of Mr. B’s death spread, anger toward the perpetrator parents poured out on local communities and social networking services (SNS), and their identities were revealed.
