A man has sparked controversy after being captured riding a bicycle from a subway platform straight into the train car.

This video was uploaded to social media on October 6.

The location is Ansian Station on Seoul Subway Line 4.

The man is freely riding his bicycle.

He passes under an exit sign and heads toward a platform where the screen door is open.

He even rides the bicycle directly into the train car with its doors open.

Even after that, he does not get off the bicycle and instead rides right through the crowd of passengers.

Because Chinese audio is embedded in the video, speculations have arisen that the man might be Chinese, though it has not been officially confirmed what his nationality actually is.

Riding a bicycle inside a station or train car in this manner is prohibited.

Netizens who watched the video reacted with comments such as, "Why wasn't anyone stopping him?" and "Shouldn't this have been reported?"
