A professor at Seoul National University recently gave a talk to fellow professors about a cleaning worker who died in a school staff room.

Mr. A, 67, who worked as a housekeeping worker at Seoul National University at 12:30 on the 9th of the day, died in a break in the staff lounge. A, who usually had heart disease, was about to have surgery. In response to this incident, the Seoul National University Student Group 'Joint Action to Create Seoul National University without Temporary Workers' stated, "Seoul National University must acknowledge and apologize for the responsibility of leaving the deceased in an inhuman working environment."

"The day when the deceased died, the temperature in Seoul was 35 degrees," he criticized.

Woo Hee-jong, professor of veterinary medicine at Seoul National University, said on Monday that he joined the signature movement of the student group.

Professor Woo said, "Where does the environment and space of the workers at Seoul National University come from? The honest answer is not by the university headquarters or the college department, but by professors."

"(Some professors) have an attitude that the professor is king and lacks the teaching space, rather than being considerate of the members of the school." Many blame ". In response to the incident, Seoul National University officials said, "We decided to set up a dedicated team to investigate the resting facilities of workers in the school at the request of the union." .
