A man in his 40s who illegally filmed female employees at a company where his father is the representative has been caught and handed over to the prosecution.

According to the Jeju Western Police Station on the 14th, a man identified as A has been sent for prosecution without detention on charges of violating the Act on the Punishment of Sexual Crimes (using a camera for filming).

A worked at a small to medium-sized enterprise in Jeju, represented by his father, from 2024 to July 2025, and it was revealed that he had installed micro-cameras in women's restrooms and under female employees' desks.

A reportedly consolidated the cameras with his mobile phone to check and record the videos in real time. So far, two victims have been confirmed.

The crime was revealed when a female employee discovered a micro-camera in a tissue box. When the incident became known, A is said to have turned himself in to the police.

The police seized A's mobile phone and conducted a digital forensic investigation, securing related videos and photos while probing the exact circumstances of the crime.
