”Random assault” in student town... Man in his 20s attacks female university student, ”creepy scene” captured on security camera = Korea

A man in his 20s was arrested by police for assaulting a woman he did not know in Sinchon, Seodaemun-gu, Seoul, South Korea. The man said he was drunk and did not remember the incident.
According to the South Korean police and Channel A on the 4th, a man in his 20s, A, who assaulted a female college student in a residential area of Shinchon, has been charged with assault and is currently under investigation.
The security camera footage of the crime scene shows A suddenly jumping on the victim, Ms. B, and knocking her down.
Afterwards, A punched B in the face as he tried to get up. A then fled in the direction of a nearby university. He was caught in front of a nearby hospital about 20 minutes later by the police who were called in response to a report.
It was revealed that on his way home, Mr. B was assaulted by A, whom he did not know. During the police investigation, Mr. A stated that he was drunk and did not remember anything, and that after drinking alcohol nearby, he assaulted a female college student.
Police have applied for an arrest warrant for the man, charging him with assault. Meanwhile, there is a "drinking reduction" system for criminals, which considers that criminal responsibility decreases when they commit a crime after drinking alcohol.
In 2008, Cho Doo-soon was found mentally and physically infirm because he was drunk at the time of the crime, and was given a 15-year prison sentence in the first trial.
The murderer Park Dae-seong of the Suncheon High School Girl Murder Case also lied and said he had drunk four bottles of soju, and experts say he planned his statement to get a reduction in his sentence due to drinking.
However, despite this public opinion, four bills to amend the law to abolish the penalty for drunk driving were submitted to the 21st National Assembly, but all were scrapped.
The need is expected to become even greater.
