Hong Jeong-woon was the third of four children.



A friend who was very shy, but full of playfulness in front of close peers.



However, he was also a deep-seated son who risked his future on the sea instead of college for the sake of his family.



After graduating from high school, I dreamed of making a lot of money and starting a yacht business.



[The late Hong Jung-woon: The apartment is pretty, isn't it? do mine? I'll buy you one.] It



was the first day of field training in the sea, where Hong Jeong-woon walked his future.



The task was to get rid of the barnacles on the bottom of the yacht.



Jungwoon, who was usually afraid of water, had difficulty breathing.



I tried to get out of the water, but I couldn't unfasten my belt with a 12kg lead ball.



Jungwoon sank to the bottom of the sea at a depth of 7m.



[The late Hong Jeong-woon's father: I have to take off my wetsuit and untie the lead belt first, but if I've been diving at least once, I'll undo it of course. It's the first day In a way, adults killed a child.] In the



labor inspection report, it is written that Jungwoon, who did not have a diving license, had to do the diving work.



Diving wasn't even a practicum task.



[The late Hong Jung-woon's friend: I couldn't get into skin scuba training and gave up halfway because I was afraid. From then on, I don’t think Jungwoon didn’t swim or go into the water.]



[The late Hong Jung-woon's friend: I never went into the water. I haven't been in since then.]



[The late Hong Jeong-woon's friend: There must have been something about going out to sea and diving yourself. On the way, he said he couldn't do it because of trauma... ] While the



laws large and small were ignored, the photo taken for the certification exam for the dream became a portrait of Jung Woon-gun.



[The late Hong Jeong-woon's father: Jung-woon's friends are also practicing at the site now. You are at risk. There is no law that says the same thing won't happen to Jungwoon.]



SBS Fact Check The truth is, the team came to mind from the words of Jungwoon's father, the late Kim Yonggyun's mother, and Kim Misook, CEO of the Kim Yongkyun Foundation.



I wanted to confirm with hard numbers the history in which I hope that the same accident as my son will not be repeated again, but even the expectation that it will not be repeated.



In December 2018, before and after the death of the late Kim Yong-gyun, we re-analyzed statistics on those who lost their lives or were injured in the industrial field.



2 years and 6 months before death, 2,403 people died, 2 years and 6 months after death, 2,211 people died, and fell, caught, and hit.



There are many reasons for the frequent fall accidents at construction sites.



Fortunately, the death toll has decreased slightly.



The number of people injured at industrial sites, 214,673 before Kim Yong-gyun, and 235,476 after Kim Yong-gyun, has risen.



Deaths decreased by 8%, but injuries increased by 9.7%.



We only looked at young people in their 10s and 20s separately.



127 deaths before Kim Yong-gyun and 112 deaths after that decreased by nearly 12%, but the number of injured people increased by 22,675 before Kim Yong-gyun and 26,533 after Kim Yong-gyun, 17%.



Various interpretations are possible.



An optimistic analysis can be made that the death rate has been decreasing since Kim Yong-gyun, and a pessimistic interpretation that the death rate has decreased but the number of injured people is increasing again.



What is clear is that, before or after Kim Yong-gyun, like a decalcomanian, like the author Kim Hoon's sentence, "Life is like a fallen leaf," about 5 people are dying every two days.



The place where the disaster passed was silent.



Politics is louder than ever.



As everything gets sucked into politics ahead of next year's big election, the industrial scene is filled with silent clamors.



Politicians went to the place where Jung Woon passed away, talking about labor and talking about youth, but another politician will come to the scene of the next accident when we die.



Knowing the paradox that the only way to save us is politics, we ask ourselves.



Do we really have a future?



In November 2017, four years of the late Lee Min-ho, a student at Jeju Specialized High School who was pressed to death by a machine during field training, three years of the late Kim Yong-gyun, and a month of the late Hong Jeong-woon… .



Fact-checking our present and our future that survived...

.



Our judgment is still, still, 'withhold judgment'.
