It is a famous dermatology clinic in Gangnam, Seoul, but the director disappeared after abruptly reporting the closure on the 10th of last month.
In front of the closed dermatology clinic, there are dozens of mail and notices that mail has arrived, and the oldest is September 23.
After losing contact for a month, about 70 customers claiming damages of tens of millions of won are preparing a class action lawsuit.
[Building official: (only the victims who came in person) 6-7 people already.
Come and ask, 'How did it go?
I'm just about to cry.] It
was confirmed that the hospital had put up the hospital space several months before it closed.
[Nearby merchant: I was going to hand over the right to rent it out.
Stop saying you're not feeling well.
I think that was around May or June.]
At the same time
, we
postponed refunds as much as possible and continued our business by inducing cash payments.
[Victim: 'If you pay in cash (payment), you can get it cheaper, but you have to withdraw cash directly from an ATM machine.
I can't transfer my account.']
Two days before the closure, there was a confirmed case of Corona 19 and the business was closed, but the last contact was to send a message to customers that they would open a second store nearby.
The Gangnam-gu Office plans to file a complaint with the police against the director of the hospital, who cannot be reached, for violating the Medical Law.
