Controversy continues that the test questions were leaked in advance at Yonsei University's essay test site.

While Yonsei University has asked the police to investigate the examinees who released the photos of the questionnaire, it has been confirmed that the examinees and parents are preparing a class action against the school.

I'll connect you to a reporter.

Reporter Lim Ye-jin, first of all, Yonsei University filed a complaint regarding the controversy over the leak of the test paper, right?

[Reporter]
Yes, Yonsei University submitted a complaint to the Seodaemun Police Station yesterday against the examinees who filmed and posted questionnaires online.It is known that six people are subject to the

complaint, including two identified humanities and natural science respondents and four unidentified persons.

It is reported that the two candidates were identified based on the questionnaire and writing contents in the picture.The police, who received the

complaint, will soon launch a full-fledged investigation by allocating the case after examining the relevant data.

Yonsei University also plans to receive an additional request for investigation into the controversy over the leakage of essay questions from the police this afternoon with the aim of clarifying the circumstances related to the damage to fairness.

At the same time, Yonsei University announced measures to prevent recurrence on its website last night, officially apologizing to test takers and parents.

It is difficult to say that the leak of the questionnaire violated the fairness of the entrance examination, but he explained that he asked the law enforcement authorities to investigate and investigate without any suspicion because he thought it was the university's duty to resolve all suspicious situations.

At the same time, the test management system was thoroughly re-examined, education for supervisors, and measures to prevent recurrence, such as changing the free seat system for the test site to a designated seat system, and strengthening the preliminary review.

Even with Yonsei University's explanation, some test takers and parents are preparing a lawsuit?

[Reporter]
Yes, on the online community where the test takers gathered, a message was posted about the leak of the problem, saying, "We are planning to file a lawsuit on October 21 and an injunction for suspension of effect on October 28."

In fact, it has been found that some natural science candidates and parents are preparing a class action.

So far, about 50 test takers and parents have expressed their intention to participate in the lawsuit.

It seems that they are filing a lawsuit to invalidate the test as they are suspected of cheating, and at the same time, they are suspending the entrance examination process by receiving a provisional citation before announcing the successful candidates for essay writing.

Yonsei University maintains that there is no problem with the fairness of the entrance exam, but the examinees at the time felt that fairness was sufficiently violated.

Although the schedule has not been set as shown in the online post, the plan is to file a lawsuit to confirm the invalidity of the test with the court as soon as this week as soon as the legal review is completed, and then apply for an injunction to suspend the validity of the essay test.

In this regard, Yonsei University repeatedly said it would not discuss the retest, but explained that it would wait and see as it requested an investigation.
