This afternoon, the main hall of the Seoul City Council.

Rep. Lee Sang-hoon of the Democratic Party of Korea, who was a member of the Transportation Committee, began to mention the murder that occurred at Sindang Station while continuing his remarks about the mental health of the Seoul Metropolitan Government and its employees.

[Lee Sang-hoon/Seoul City Councilman (along with the Democratic Party): I like it, but because he doesn't accept it, the male employee seems to have responded with various violent actions.]

Another remark follows.

[Lee Sang-hoon/Seoul City Councilman (along with the Democratic Party): (The perpetrator) is a young man of Seoul citizens who would have worked hard to prepare for social life and employment in their own way to get into the Seoul Transportation Corporation level.

And so are the victims.

How do the real parents feel, whether the perpetrator or the victim?]

Lee Sang-hoon's entire remark was that 'the city of Seoul should provide sufficient treatment and support to employees with mental problems', but the victim did not accept the heart of the perpetrator. The second offense caused controversy as remarks that could be interpreted as having occurred and remarks about the perpetrator were continued.

[Shin Kyung-ah / Professor of Sociology, Hallym University: (Stalking) is clearly bullying and violence.

It is very worrying that a person representing a citizen's opinion in Seoul made such an expression even for a brief moment (I am very concerned)]

As the controversy grew, the city councilor said, "I bow my head and apologize for deeply hurting the victim and the bereaved family with my rash remarks. ' issued a statement.

The Democratic Party of Seoul also apologized to the victims, bereaved families and citizens, saying Lee's remarks were very inappropriate.

He also announced that he would immediately refer Lee to the Ethics Tribunal and begin the disciplinary process.
