YTN has reported on several issues related to allegations of indiscriminate assault at an elementary school swimming department in Mokpo.
The swimming coach, who was accused of being the perpetrator, was dismissed after the problem was raised at the time, but it was confirmed that the reason was’expiration of the appointment period’.
At the time, it is questionable whether the educational authorities were appropriate.

It was on August 17, 2017 that the case of student assault by a swimming coach at an elementary school in Mokpo was received.
The parents of the victims already informed the coach’s wife and the director who was the head of the school affairs in March, but said they were publicized as the assault continued.
[폭력 피해 학생 보호자 : 봄에도 감독한테 말을 했는데도 불구하고 한 4개월이라는 시간 동안도 아이가 그렇게 꾸준하게 당했다고 하니까…. 이제 수영장 쫓아간 것까지도 얘기했어요, 교장한테 그랬죠.]
And after two weeks, the swimming coach, who was then accused of assault, was dismissed.
The elementary school reported the reason for dismissal of the swimming coach at the time as’expiration of the appointment period’ to the school district.
However, there was no mention of the school violence that was a problem at the Swimming Department.
[당시 교장 : (학교폭력이) 민감한 사안이고 있는가, 없는가를 해 나가는 그런 상황으로 학교에서는 진행됐어요. 그래서 그것이 사실인지 아닌지조차도 저는 지금도 모릅니다.]
But earlier, the coach went to the parent’s workplace in a craziness, admitted to the assault, and knelt down in the rain and even dispatched the police.
[폭력 피해 학생 보호자 : 오자마자 무릎을 꿇어서 제가 바로 112에 신고하고…. 아이 아빠(코치) 오면 이제 칼부림하고 다 난리 나니까, 다 죽으니까 빨리 이거 조치해야 한다고 저한테 그런 식으로까지 (수영부 감독인 코치 부인이) 얘기했거든요. 경찰 출동해서 그 000이 데리고 갔거든요.]
[전 초등학교 수영 코치(2017년) : 죽을죄를 지었다고…. 형이 이렇게 무릎 꿇고 너한테 한다. 내가 이렇게 누구한테 무릎 꿇고 해 본 적 없어. (그러니까 저한테 하지 마시라니까요.) 무릎 꿇고 반성한다고…. (저한테 하지 마시라고요) 진짜 미안하다, 무조건 미안하다. 무조건 잘못했다고, 그건 다 내 잘못이라고….]
A related case in which time was delayed due to difficulties in securing physical documents after the swimming coach moved the address was handed over to trial two years after the investigation by the prosecution.
There are four charges applied to swimming coaches: child abuse, special assault, and injuries.
It seems that a full re-investigation of the education authorities, which has not taken any action during the two years from raising the problem of the victims to the investigation by the prosecution, seems to be necessary.
