(2)According to Hankyoreh’s report on the 25th, in mid-January, Soongsil University’s Ph.D. research student A24 killed himself at his home In January, Mr. A was verbally abused by his advisor while taking charge of leading undergraduate students participating in the International Electronics Expo CES in Las Vegas According to an investigation by the Human Rights Commission of Soongsil University, the professor was found to have shouted at him in front of undergraduate students, saying, “Are you stupid?” and “I ruined the event because of you.”
(3)Since Mr. A was there, the bereaved family said, “I feel like I’m guilty of death.” He blamed himself, saying, “I can’t go back to Korea,” and said he was diagnosed with delusions due to extreme stress at the hospital after returning home. A killed himself at home in January, a few days after returning home
(4)The bereaved family reported the incident to the school’s human rights committee in February The organization, chaired by the vice-president of Soongsil University, is in charge of investigating human rights violations in the school. During the investigation, Professor Ne denied his responsibility, saying, “If you take psychiatric medicine, you will not die.” It is the parents’ great fault.”
(5)During the investigation, even his brother took his own life due to the guilt of his brother’s death, and the bereaved family withdrew the report, saying that the investigation was meaningless. However, the school’s human rights committee judged that the issue was serious and continued its investigation, and after the incident, it recognized both Professor L’s verbal abuse against the victim’s parents and Professor B’s secondary abusive remarks to the parents and demanded the school’s teacher disciplinary committee to decide on severe punishment The school’s human rights commission cannot be subject to disciplinary action, but it can demand disciplinary action by setting the level of disciplinary action The commission also ordered the professor to complete an eight-hour human rights sensitivity education program
(6)However, on the 13th of last month, Soongsil University’s teacher disciplinary committee voted to reprimand the professor, which is equivalent to light punishment Professor B’s direct responsibility for Mr. A’s death has not been acknowledged The bereaved family suspects that the fact that Professor B has a significant influence in the school’s teaching community has influenced the reduction of the level of disciplinary action
