Student Terrified After Encountering Bloody Man Wandering Near Villa in Ulsan

A female student in Ulsan, South Korea, encountered a man covered in blood wandering near her apartment complex on October 2, 2024. According to a report by Newsis and footage aired by JTBC’s “Sakeon Banjang,” the man was found staggering near the building’s entrance with blood on his face and hands before he was eventually transported to a university hospital by 119 emergency services.

Incident Details at Ulsan Villa Complex

The encounter occurred around 8:00 a.m. on October 2, as the student was leaving her home for school. CCTV footage released by the reporter shows a man unable to steady himself, leaning against vehicles and lingering by the automatic doors of the villa. The student immediately retreated back into the elevator upon seeing the man’s condition.

The student’s mother subsequently went downstairs to investigate and reported the situation to the police. The reporter’s family expressed significant distress, noting that the man could have entered the building had the automatic doors opened at that moment. The mother stated that her daughter remains deeply shaken by the event.

Official Response and Medical Status

While the family initially suspected the man might have been under the influence of drugs because he did not appear intoxicated by alcohol, official sources provided a different account. JTBC’s “Sakeon Banjang” confirmed with the local precinct and fire authorities that the man was suffering from physical injuries.

The 119 emergency team transported the individual to a university hospital for treatment. However, the specific cause of the injuries and the circumstances leading to his presence at the villa complex have not been officially disclosed by authorities.

Safety Concerns and Community Reaction

Commentators on the JTBC program likened the scene to a horror movie, questioning why an injured person would wander a residential area rather than seeking immediate medical attention.
