An intersection in Suwon, Gyeonggi-do.
The moment the right turn signal turns red, a city bus enters the intersection and turns right.
Cho Eun-gyeol, a second-year elementary school student who was crossing the crosswalk at a green light, was hit by this bus and passed away.
The day after the accident, chrysanthemum mourning the tragedy, dolls and snacks that Eun-gyeol would have loved were placed there.

″It’s too bad. I am on my way after praying for my child to go to a good place and to go to a place where there are no cars and that he is well (staying).”
A handwritten letter was also attached to the traffic light.
′′ I’m sorry for the adults ′′ You must have been leaving school with a happy heart… ′
Even the fence of the construction site near the intersection is filled with memorial messages from citizens.
Even in front of the portrait of Eungyeol, the third son, smiling brightly, it is hard for parents to believe.
It was the day I emptied my usual breakfast and went to school.

″Depending on the day, I rubbed a lot of fried eggs and ate well, and went very well. I did things I wouldn’t normally do and went to school. It was so unique… ″
″If you cross the street by obeying the signal and suffer such terrible things, what use is the child protection area?″ she protests.

″I saw the scene of the accident. It looked like it was in too much pain. What would you do if there was a ‘Min-Sik Act’, cases keep popping up…″
The bus driver who caused the accident was arrested on charges of dangerous driving in a children’s protection zone, that is, violating the Minsik Act.
