"언론에 알리기 정말 싫었는데.." 숨진 여친 카톡 공개한 이유 (자막뉴스) / SBS

[Ms. A's Fiancé/News Hunters: A new team leader is coming, and he loves to drink. (The deceased's) worries began. Because if she were to fall out of favor and things went wrong, everything she had endured would vanish... That was when it all started.] Last October, Ms. A, a female civil servant in her 20s affiliated with the Gwangju Fire Department, took her own life. During her lifetime, Ms. A had consistently complained to her fiancé, Mr. B, about the suffering caused by excessive pressure to drink and the culture of company dinners. [Reporter Kim Gyuri/News Hunters: "At a company dinner, I chugged four glasses of soju and beer mix right away as soon as I arrived. I threw up 10 times during a team dinner. They won't let me go even when I'm drunk. I feel like I'm going to die. I think I need to go to a karaoke bar with just the team leader." There were messages like this.] However, the publicly released resignation letter stated that there were difficulties in her relationship with her fiancé, Mr. B. Mr. B, who realized this belatedly, requested an inspection from the Gwangju Fire Department, but the process did not proceed for over five months. The inspection finally began last May, only after he visited the National Fire Agency, the superior organization. The firefighters' union, which reported the incident to SBS, stated, "There is no hope within Gwangju. No matter how many issues are raised, there seems to be no will to act." [Mr. A's Fiancé/News Hunters: He was drunk even when he came home at 7 PM, and drunk even when he came home at 9 PM. On days when it was really late, they would make him drink at a karaoke bar until 2:30 AM... He would collapse and sleep in the shoe rack without even being able to change his clothes, and whenever he came home, he would always throw up.] Mr. B, the fiancée, expressed his frustration, saying, "I didn't want Mr. A to be the subject of gossip, but reporting to the media was my last resort." The Gwangju Fire Department's stance was different. [Gwangju Fire Department Official/News Hunters: If you had sent us an email with objective data, we would probably have provided you with an application form.] "If there had been no way to contact me, I don't think I would feel so wronged. But since they are asking why an investigation wasn't conducted despite me having informed them of all of this, I am honestly quite baffled myself." The claim is that there was no contact from Mr. B after he stated he would submit the materials. However, an internal report obtained by SBS stated that "verification of the facts regarding the death dismissal letter is necessary" and that "a re-investigation is scheduled to be conducted." The Gwangju Fire Department also acknowledged the necessity of a re-investigation. Citing the SBS report, President Lee Jae-myung stated that it was "truly deplorable" and ordered a thorough investigation led by the Office for Government Policy Coordination. Separately from this incident, it was revealed that one of the superiors identified as the perpetrator was the same individual who had already been reported to the internal anonymous reporting system for another alleged abuse of power.
