    '완전범죄' 노렸을 그 성폭행 교사, 결국... The Gwangju Metropolitan Police Agency said yesterday it would press charges of sexual assault or sexual harassment against 14 out of 40 teachers and school officials allegedly involved in the brutal sexual assaults of hearing-impaired students at Inhwa School. The serial rapes and abuse of deaf students at Inhwa School, a specialized education institute for disabled students in Gwangju, became a national outrage following the September release of "Dogani", or "The Crucible", a movie based on a novel by Gong Ji-young. The abuse was particularly heavy between 2000 and 2005, but dates back several decades. Last month, the Gwangju Metropolitan Office of Education said it would shut down Inhwa School,...More

Synopsis
Based on the novel of the same name written by star author Gong Ji-young, “The Crucible” follows a group of children with disabilities who suffer physical and sexual abuse at the hands of their teachers.
Gong is one of a few star authors in Korea whose novels have sold more than a million copies. When her novel was published in June 2009, it became an instant hit not only because it was written by Gong but because it is based on a true story.
The film begins as Gang In-ho (Gong Yoo), who is working to earn money for his daughter’s surgery, is appointed to a school for hearing-impaired children in Gwangju. But what he discovers there is an ugly truth: the children are being physically and sexually abused by their teachers. When he decides to fight for the children’s rights and expose the crimes being committed at the school, In-ho teams up with human rights activist Seo Yu-jin (Jeong Yu-mi). But he and Yu-jin soon realize the school’s principal and teachers, and even the police, prosecutors and churches in the community are actually trying to cover up the truth.
Director Hwang Dong-hyeok, who previously directed the 2007 hit film “My Father,” has received rave reviews for turning a successful novel into a well-made motion picture.
