"My parents got punished".'Mocking the bereaved' inside the doctor's community

an online community

The revelation that a mockery of the bereaved family of the Muan Jeju Air plane disaster was posted in an anonymous community dedicated to doctors and medical students has caused public anger.

On the 2nd, social networking services (SNS) and online communities are spreading articles titled "The Doctor Community's Horrible Popular Post on the Jeju Airport Disaster."

The writer A said, "I decided to reveal the inside because I couldn't open my eyes and see it," along with a capture of the young doctor-centered community 'MediStaff.'

One post, which has high views here, dealt with an interview with a son in his 20s who lost his mother in the Jeju Air plane disaster and prepared for a national examination at the accident site Tet.

However, there were a number of comments mocking the son and the deceased in the article. The reason is that while medical students have left school in protest of the government's decision to increase medical schools, preparing for the national exam itself does not participate in the leave of absence.

There were a number of comments insulting the deceased, such as "It's already a sin to give birth to tangerines," and "My child is a sinner, but my parents received the punishment." Citrus is a word that disparages doctors who return to training hospitals.

There were some opinions to be cautious, but rather, there were comments refuting this.

A said, "I couldn't open my eyes to see him mocking the bereaved, so I decided to reveal it inside," adding, "It's terrible that such a person sees medical treatment as a doctor." Please help catch those who have been widely spread and mocked the bereaved family," he appealed.

Meanwhile, police have launched an investigation into malicious online posts insulting the victims and their bereaved families of the Jeju Air plane disaster. It has deleted and blocked 107 cases, including posts and comments from Internet communities that disparaged or harmed victims and bereaved families, and is tracking down three writers of insulting posts related to bereaved families.
