Construction, installation and removal of mortuary tablets with real names in Seongsan Annex… “Practical Mistake”
The real name of the victim was exposed at an incense burner installed by the Seoul Transportation Corporation to commemorate the victims of the ‘Sindang Station Employee Stalking Murder Case’.
According to the Seoul Transportation Corporation and the labor union on the 21st, the corporation declared 12 days from the 19th of this month as the Victims Memorial Week, and installed incense burners in about 20 places including the headquarters, city hall station, vehicle office, and technology annex.
Among them, it was confirmed that a mortuary tablet with the victim’s real name was installed at the incense center in Seongsan Annex, Mapo-gu, without the consent of the bereaved family.
Usually, the victim’s real name is not disclosed without the consent of the bereaved family for fear of secondary harm.
When this fact became known, the bereaved family is said to have protested the construction.
The KAC announced that it was aware of the contents this afternoon and removed the mortuary tablets of all incense houses.
A construction official said, “There was a practical error during the installation process, and we took action immediately.”
