On the 13th, a video was posted on Han Moon-cheol TV by a tipster who introduced himself as a driver of a 28-seat bus. Last month, he took 18 elementary school classmates on a birthday trip. The incident occurred on the return trip. Some of the 18 passengers boarded the bus carrying pungent foods such as fermented skate salad (hong-eo hoe muchim) and alcohol. The bus driver tried to stop them, but they were uncooperative. While the bus was moving on the road, some passengers unfastened their seat belts, walked around inside the bus, and drank alcohol. The tipster repeatedly asked them to sit down and fasten their seat belts, but his requests were ignored.

Passing a rest area, the tipster finally stopped the bus and said he would resume driving only after they fastened their seat belts and paid the remaining fare. However, the passengers responded, "We'll call another bus; we don't need you," and instead reported him to the police. They then refused to get off, blocking the bus and even lying down on the road, saying, "We won't leave until a new bus arrives."

The tipster told Han Moon-cheol TV, "The unpaid fare is not important. I just hope incidents like this, which happen every year, never happen again." He added, "If such passengers are left unchecked, drivers face penalties and suspensions that threaten their livelihood, while passengers receive only minor misdemeanor punishments." He continued, "Drivers have the duty and responsibility to ensure passengers' safety, but this is not being fulfilled. Stronger legal standards and precedents for passengers are needed. If many people become aware of this, such incidents might not be repeated."
