S. Jin, an aviation enthusiast, self-built a powered hang glider and invited several guests to watch the setting up of that airframe. He, however, did not have safety measures implemented; when the glider suddenly overturned, he was crushed against it and wounded, while a bystander was struck by the running propellor and died. Local court's criminal investigation ascribed the accident to negligence on the part of Jin, who was given a two-year sentence.
