Regarding a Daejeon elementary school teacher who made an extreme choice after suffering from malicious complaints , controversy is brewing with the appearance of a SNS account that exposes the identity of the parents who were pointed out as the perpetrators.
As public opinion spreads that compensation should be paid for the bullying that led to the teacher’s death, there are also concerns that secondary victims may arise due to indiscriminate leaks of personal information and unconfirmed posts.
On the 11th, an account on the SNS Instagram posted an introductory message that read, “We are revealing the faces of the murderer who caused a 24-year female teacher to commit suicide, as well as the faces of his children and even his in-laws’ cousins. “
This account, created the day before, registered about 40 posts showing the phone numbers, addresses, occupations, and places of business along with face photos of parents and family members in the Daejeon area who were identified as the perpetrators of the Daejeon teacher’s death incident.
The account administrator said, “Some may say they are crossing the line, but because of them, the husband lost his beloved wife,” and “The mother lost her daughter, the two children lost their mother, and the family was devastated.”
He added, “I want to make them aware of their mistakes using the method of ‘an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth.’” He added, “I want to eradicate the fundamental cause of this incident that caused social outrage.”
The administrator revealed a message from some netizens saying스포츠토토 that they would report the post if they did not take it down, and also revealed their age by saying, “If you want to try it, try it. I am a 10-year-old boy.”
The account is receiving explosive response and support, gaining over 7,150 followers in just one day.
They say, “You’re brave and cool,” “A 10-year-old boy does something that even the police can’t do,” “What line are you crossing? This is justice,” “Everyone in the world is on your side. Thank you for fighting together like this. Support.” They are responding positively by posting comments such as “I will do it.”
However, at the same time, there are reactions that the level of disclosure is too excessive, and there are concerns that it may lead to secondary damage where uninvolved parents are also pointed out as perpetrators.
An acquaintance of a gym director who was immediately identified as the perpetrator on this account posted an explanation on a local online community, saying, “The director is not the perpetrator of this incident,” and “I hope no one gets unfairly treated because of unclear information.” .
Experts also expressed concern that it is difficult to verify the facts of information obtained online, and that indiscriminate spread could result in innocent victims.
Seol Dong-hoon, a professor of sociology at Chonbuk National University, said, “It appears that he went beyond being interested in social phenomena and took action directly with the motive of punishing bad people.”
Professor Seol said, “The public is not properly informed of the status of the investigation into the series of cases, and there is a movement to cheer this account even more, but there is a good possibility that even the posts that are believed to be true are not true.” “Because there is a high possibility of becoming a victim of number 3, I wonder if it would have been better to pass on the information I collected to public authorities such as the police,” he added.
