A South Korean candidate who ranked first in professional tax exams used a hidden camera and AI tools to bypass testing controls.
The case led to a revoked qualification and emergency government reviews on examination security.
He admitted that he used technological means to achieve this result. Specifically, he used a microcamera to take pictures of the exam questions and send them to artificial intelligence programs. He then viewed the answers on his mobile phone.
Although he initially denied the charges, the 34-year-old confessed to Seoul police. He apologized and said he changed his mind after thinking about the second-place candidate.
Following the admission, authorities announced sanctions that include the cancellation of the diploma and a five-year ban from taking exams. The government warned that it would identify and punish previous cases of fraud, while the incident prompted an emergency meeting of the Ministry of Labor and the relevant agencies.
