Mother Pleaded to Check on Her Child, but Police Dismissed It as a Simple Civil Complaint

A four-year-old child was found dead inside her father's car, just three days before she was due to reunite with her mother. Despite the mother's repeated requests to check on her daughter's safety, the police failed to directly verify the child's condition following the final report.

On the same day in Jeju, a woman suffering from stalking was killed, and just a day prior in Songpa, Seoul, the mother of a victim of domestic violence was also found dead. All of the victims had previously alerted the police to the dangers they faced and requested protection multiple times. However, the repeated reports and protective measures failed to prevent the tragedies.

As the police embark on yet another comprehensive inspection, do they possess a protection system that citizens can truly trust and rely on, matching their heavier responsibilities? Videomug examines the full story behind the incidents and the limitations of the police response system.
