[단독]Yeouido shopping mall investment, Seoul city to understand situation

On the 15th, it was confirmed that the Seoul Metropolitan Government was trying to understand the situation about the incident that a man in his 30s committed at a shopping mall in Yeouido.

On the 21st, an official from Seoul said, “We are checking the contents to understand the work between the company where the deceased worked and the city of Seoul, what kind of work the deceased did with the parent foundation under the city of Seoul, and what kind of relationship it was.” We are looking into related facts.” However, he explained, “Because we do not have the right to investigate directly, it is to first check what role each person played and what relationship the Foundation staff had.”

On the 20th, the JoongAng Ilbo reported that a suspicion was raised that A, who invested in a shopping mall in Yeouido on the 15th, had been harassed inside and outside the workplace. A friend of Mr. A said on the 20th, “Before Mr. A made an extreme choice, he often said to his friends and family,’Work is too hard. I want to quit’.” Mr. A worked for a company that provides services related to startups. He was an experienced employee who left about four months ago. It was also argued that there was pressure from the B Foundation under the Seoul Metropolitan Government, the owner of the company where Mr. A worked, who worked on the so-called’accelerator’-related work by discovering startup resources and linking investment.

An acquaintance of Mr. A, who had a funeral with his bereaved family, said on the 20th, “I think he made an impulsive choice after experiencing extreme stress or insulting events on the day.” On the afternoon of the 15th, before Mr. A made an extreme choice, Mr. A made several repeated calls with employees of the company and officials from a parent foundation under the city of Seoul, and records remain.

On the 20th, A’s company side said in a text message, “There is no situation yet, so any remarks you make can be speculated.” A representative of the foundation hung up the phone, saying, “I remember the relationship with the deceased for business cooperation.”

Meanwhile, in the Blue House National Petition on the 18th, the author, who said that he was an acquaintance of Mr. A, who died, posted a post to the effect that the exact details of his death should be revealed, stating, “The deceased was under pressure from work during his lifetime.” He claimed that he had been under pressure from work lately, saying, “I lived day and night with three heavy work.” He added, “Accordingly, (Mr. A) spoke with the person in charge a few minutes before the accident, and He said he fell off the railing while hung up,” he said. “In the context, whether this is an investment suicide or a loss due to work stress should be investigated.”
