Assalamu'alaikum Warahmatullahi Wabarakaatuh.

Welcome back to my blog

In this blog, I would like to provide information about bully cases that claimed lives in South Korea in 2012.






In 2012, in South Korea there were cases of bullying that claimed lives. The bullying case happened to a teenager named Seung-min, he was thirteen years old. He was bullied by his friends at school. He had been beaten and robbed by classmates, burned with matches and had his neck tied with electric wires.

His mother, Lim Jee-young, who reads the suicide note left by her son, said he had been bullied many times before his death.

He ended his life by jumping from the seventh floor window of his parents' apartment. The mother is not sure why her child is the victim of bullying.

According to Lim, Seung-min's classmates who often harass their children have been sent to a juvenile delinquency rehabilitation center. However, he stated that the school community and teachers also had the blame for the death of their child. "The school seems to want to cover up this case. Five months before my son committed suicide, there has been another case where a girl in the same class decided to commit suicide because of bullying. However, the school did not do anything, so this case happened. again, "added Lim.

Violence in schools is one of the problems that the South Korean government must face. "Violence in schools has become an important social issue," said President Lee Myung-bak in a parliamentary session earlier this month. victims, but also youth and society as a whole, "he added

The South Korean government itself has announced several new rules aimed at preventing the growing number of bullying cases in schools. In fact, they have lowered the age of students who can face criminal sentences from the previous 14 years to 12 years.
