Flowers are lined up in front of a memorial for a teacher who died last Thursday after attempting suicide, at an elementary school in Daejeon on Saturday. The teacher, who was in her 40s, had been harassed by students’ parents and attempted suicide on Tuesday. According to the teachers’ union, the teacher had been harassed by the parents for four years, even after changing schools. The teacher is one of a handful of teachers who have resorted to suicide in the last two months, following the death of the Seo 2 Elementary School teacher in July. Sunday is World Suicide Prevention Day. [YONHAP]
