A team of investigative journalists has revealed another video that contains the bad behavior of Hankook Mirae Technology Chairman Yang Jin-ho, who ignited public rage Tuesday when a video showing him brutally attacking a former employee was disclosed.

This one shows him slaughtering a chicken.

The second video report, produced by investigative journalist teams News Tapa and Sherlock, was put on Facebook Wednesday under the title "Yang Jin-ho's order: Kill the Chicken."

In the video, made during a workshop, Yang sets a chicken free in a yard and forces his employees to hunt it down with a bow and arrow.

A meter-long blade is also involved in the brutal slaughter of the bird, with Yang ordering his employees to strike the chicken while it is in the air.

As the employees continuously miss the target, Yang hysterically snatches the weapon and kills the chicken.

The report said it was impossible for the employees to disobey Yang's orders, pointing out his massive influence and power over the workers.

On Tuesday, News Tapa released a three-minute video, filmed in 2015, that shows Yang hitting a former employee in the face in fit of anger at the head office of the online file-sharing firm WeDisk. Yang is the company's largest shareholder.

The video was reportedly filmed at Yang's request.

The attack came after the former employee was caught posting comments on the company's online bulletin board under an ID parodying the chairman's name. The victim was traumatized and left the city.

The chairman has not commented on the videos.
