A female student of the school identified as 'A' had discovered something strange in the middle of art class: a camcorder in the corner of the room. It turns out that the art teacher, 'Lee', had been recording the students in his class without their consent. The students confronted Lee, but Lee paid no heed to them and continued to his recording.
'A' told the reporter, "He yelled at us to go in the classroom. So we went in but that's when he locked the door. So that we couldn't get out."
Lee had even refused the students' requests to show them the footage, claiming, "You're wrong if you think you can see the footage because you were recorded. Class can be captured without consent from the students."

Even after the students asked him to stop the recording, Lee continued to record them countless times during his class. Reporters visited the school to ask Lee for an explanation, but Lee refused to see them.
The school declared that after examining the situation further, they will devise an appropriate course of action against Lee.
