50 people were sentenced to death in a trial where they threatened other passengers on the train and suddenly stopped the train by touching the door emergency switch.

The 13th Criminal Detective in Seoul Southern District Law (Shin Hyuk-jae) said on August 27 that he was sentenced to 10 months imprisonment for Mr. Umo, 58, who was charged with tram traffic, business disruption and violation of the railroad safety law.

Woo was accused of interfering with the tram operation by operating the door emergency switch on a train running toward Sindorim Station from Seoul Subway Line 2 Munrae Station on July 6 at 9:48 pm.

At the time, Mr. Wu was drunk in the car, followed by a female passenger, screaming and slamming, and operated the door opener next to the door for no reason.

When the emergency switch opened, the engineer suddenly stopped the train.

Suddenly, when the train stopped, the passengers in the other cabins were insecure, leading to confusion by forcing the doors to be opened and forced to evacuate by rail.

Seoul Transportation Corporation did not resume operation until after checking the trains and confirming that there were no problems.

The train was stopped for 12 minutes at that time.

The court said, "There were some accidents that caused some passengers to fall on the tracks while terrified passengers ran away from the defendant." "There are no circumstances to consider the motives of the crimes. He said.
