A car enters the front door and heads towards the playground.
They start spinning around the playground covered with natural grass.
In some cases, the driver and the passenger in the back seat change seats.
After about 3 minutes of walking around the playground, I leisurely exit the playground.
This is a CCTV video filmed at Yesung Girls' Middle School in Chungju around 1:45 a.m. on the 26th.
Even though a structure was erected to prohibit entry in this way, I ignored it and entered the playground.
On the lawn of the playground, the wheels of vehicles are full of scratches, and if you look closely, there are dents everywhere.
However, it has been confirmed that this vehicle has been doing the same thing a week ago and has been in and out of the school yard habitually.
[Yanggyojik / Chungju Yesung Girls' Middle School Sports Manager: It's a very cherished grass field.
However, if the playground is damaged like this, it will take more than three years to restore it to its original state...

The school, which requires students to refrain from entering the playground to protect the lawn, is in a state of dismay around April when the buds are sprouting.
[Oh Eok-gyun / Principal of Yesung Girls' Middle School in Chungju: It's unfortunate that something happened that makes you doubt mature citizenship.
In the hope that our school will be a beautiful school and a learning place where students and the local community can learn together...

The school has asked the police to investigate to prevent a recurrence, and the police are looking for a suspect on the charge of property damage.
