By Eom Da-sol


The Ulsan District Court has jailed a man who raided a middle school with six thugs to threaten teenage girls who bullied his daughter.

The court Tuesday jailed the father for a year and sentenced the gangsters he hired to terms ranging from eight months to a year. They were accused of the crime in 2015.

The convicted man's daughter allegedly suffered serious distress two years ago because of school bullies.

The man acted after the bullies shared a photo of his daughter's body parts with classmates without her permission, asking the thugs to "take revenge."

Later, the father and one of his henchmen broke into the school principal's office, threatening the principal to assemble the bullies. The five other thugs were waiting at the school's main gate to intimidate students and staff.

The principal refused to give in, so the men broke into the bullies' classroom. They forced the alleged bullies to kneel in front of the class and threatened to beat them.

The threat stopped when police arrived an hour later.

The judge said: "Although the girl may have been bullied by the students, the alleged harassers have also been insulted and threatened by the girl's father and his friends. The students still shed tears when they recall the unforgettable trauma."
