According to reports on November 18, a police station in Seoul’s Gangnam area received a report that said a man was taking illegal pictures in the women’s restroom. The callers also notified the authorities that the suspect was trapped inside the restroom to prevent any escape attempts.

The incident occurred on November 14 in the bathroom of a non-residential commercial building in Gangnam around 5:30 pm. According to the police, the man, Mr. A, sneaked into the women’s restroom an hour before the crime. He was reportedly hiding in a toilet stall, filming women by holding a camera above the stalls next to him.
