Busan High School Student Jumps From Fourth Floor After Being Caught Filming In Girls’ Restroom

He is currently hospitalized.

Illegal filming using smartphones has become such a widespread problem in countries like Japan and South Korea that phone carriers have implemented a feature that allows people to film people without their consent. This has made it much harder for people to secretly film others, especially when it comes to men trying to film women in vulnerable or sexual ways without their consent.

That’s what happened recently to a high school student in Busan who was trying to film inside a girls’ restroom. The senior, identified only as “A,” was caught trying to record a video in the school’s restroom by girls occupying it.

When the girls heard the sound of the recording, they confronted “A.” Rather than admit his illegal actions or try to deny them, he made the impulsive decision to jump from the fourth floor of the school.

He survived the jump, but he suffered multiple fractures and is currently hospitalized. Once he is released from the hospital, the school administration plans to conduct a thorough investigation to determine what kind of disciplinary action to take against “A.”
