Stretching her foot outside the car door and sleeping soundly... Woman who caused a 'door ding' to the adjacent vehicle

Sleeping with foot sticking out in Bundang University Hospital parking lot
Car door dinged on adjacent parked vehicle

A story has been shared about someone being seen sleeping with their foot sticking out of the back seat door in the parking lot of a university hospital in Bundang. The controversy is further intensified as the person sleeping had the door wide open, causing a 'door ding' (scratching or denting another car’s door when opening or closing one’s own car door) to the vehicle parked next to them.

On the 28th, a post titled "Came to the hospital and it’s hilariously funny" was uploaded on an online community. As of 1 PM on the 29th, the post had recorded 53,000 views and 700 recommendations, becoming a major topic. The author, Mr. A, who stopped by the parking lot of a university hospital in Bundang, shared a photo saying, "An ajumma is door dinging and sleeping like that."

In the photo posted by Mr. A, a woman wearing purple striped socks is seen with her foot sticking out of the car, sound asleep. The back seat door of the car is wide open and touching the front door of the adjacent vehicle. This is a dangerous situation where even a little force could leave a mark on the neighboring car. Mr. A added, "I should inform the car owner."

Netizens who saw the story responded with comments such as "Really inconsiderate," "Seems like they have no common sense at all," "No basic decency or family education," "There are truly many strange people in the world," "If you say something, they might yell," "Good that you contacted the car owner," and "At that level, they might pretend to faint if confronted." Netizen B, who said they had experienced similar incidents, advised, "I have witnessed and been a victim of door dings many times, so I avoid parking near entrances of supermarkets or hospitals. Cars parked close to the entrance usually have no consideration or common sense. Next time, don’t engage and just avoid them."

Meanwhile, under current law, criminal punishment for property damage and hit-and-run (causing damage to a vehicle and leaving the scene without taking action) requires the vehicle to be in operation and the other party to have intent. Door ding accidents occurring in parking or stopped vehicle situations, like in this story, are difficult to prove causality clearly even if a civil damage claim is filed, making it hard to receive compensation for damages.
