[August 28, last year, SBS 8 News: A 20-year-old man with Autism Disorder died at a facility for the disabled in Incheon.

The food was forcibly fed by the facility, and the food went into the airways…

.]



When Mr. Jang Hee-won, who refused to eat even by hitting his cheek, runs away, his staff catches him and shoves kimbap into his mouth, suppressing it with force and feeding him tteokbokki.



The cause of death of Jang, who died six days after being taken to the hospital, was 'suffocation due to airway obstruction'.



[The late Jang Hee-won's father: I am so angry when I think of the child holding him without even getting up.

(It's so hard to close my eyes, really.)]



In the trial that was held while the prosecution indicted the director of the Center for the Disabled and a social worker, it was revealed that he had been forced to eat food several times before this incident.



This is a CCTV video obtained by SBS on August 4th last year.



It was two days before the day of the incident where I was taken to the hospital.



As the staff quickly feeds the jajangmyeon, Mr. Jang gets up and stretches out his hand as if to ask another staff member for help, but this employee still puts a pressure on Mr. Jang's shoulder.



The two employees use their strength to seat Mr. Jang and grab hold of his arm.



Pull the chair so tight you can't even get up.



Jang's meal, with a distressed expression on his face, was over in 3 minutes when the manager appeared, and the staff ate slowly for about 20 minutes afterward.



The next day the same thing happened again.



The meal proceeded while pressing the chair legs to keep them from getting out of the seat.



This time, less than four minutes passed before Jang finished eating.



The bereaved family's blood spurts in the circumstances of habitual abuse that was confirmed during the trial process asking for responsibility for death.



[The late Jang Hee-won's father: I didn't want it until I killed the child, hitting my belly, but there was an inevitability that I was abusing the child and feeding it until I grabbed and dragged him several times.

(At home) He's been eating well.

Why does a child have to be subjected to such relentless atrocities?
