‘[Sports Seoul | Reporter Park Hyo-sil] There is growing concern surrounding the psychiatric specialist director Yang Jae-woong, who has been indicted on charges of patient abandonment causing death. As the full story of the incident unfolds, criticism has escalated not only towards the deceased patient but also towards the response to the patient’s family following the fatal accident.’, ‘Over the past two months since the incident, there has been minimal mourning and consideration shown, raising doubts about Yang’s qualifications as a psychiatrist who should value emotional connection with patients.’, ‘It was revealed that a patient in their 30s who had been hospitalized for treatment of diet pill addiction on the 28th entered the hospital and died on May 27th at 4 a.m. due to gastric necrosis. The patient, referred to as A, who was hospitalized at a hospital run by Director Yang for addiction treatment, was mentally unconscious and died two hours after being immobilized by tying hands, feet, and chest to the bed and experiencing bloating and vomiting.’,

‘Director Yang gained popularity by appearing on various TV programs with his brother, psychiatrist Yang Jae-jin, and also runs a YouTube channel called ‘Yang Brother’s Mental World’ with 660,000 subscribers. Their last video was posted in February before taking a break, and netizens have expressed their anger by leaving over 860 comments on this video.’, ‘Subscribers commented, “A person died due to negligence at his own hospital in late May. After that, he came out on ‘4-Person Dining Table’ and laughed. It’s really giving me chills”, “Even big hospitals rarely restrain patients. Shocking, especially for a simple addiction patient…”, “Isn’t it inappropriate for the victim’s mother to be protesting in front of the hospital and then happily announcing a marriage on TV?”, expressing their reactions.’, ‘Director Yang, who has been in a relationship with former EXID member Hani for over 4 years, is preparing for their wedding in September. Their marriage was announced on May 31st, with Hani personally announcing the marriage through a handwritten letter on June 1st. However, their much-awaited marriage was overshadowed by the announcement just days after the patient’s death, drawing criticism.’, ‘Medical accidents are among the most difficult cases to prove medical staff’s negligence and hold them accountable. Due to the lack of evidence and medical knowledge compared to medical professionals, most medical accidents end in a one-sided ‘blame the victim’ situation for the victims and their families.’, ‘However, the nature of this incident has changed. Director Yang’s fame has become a target of numerous arrows questioning his appropriate medical practices and protective measures as a physician. The trust of 660,000 people has turned into 660,000 expressions of anger. It is a fundamental criticism for neglecting the minimum duty as a primary physician.
