Meanwhile, the government has operated a preregistration system
such as fingerprints from the past 2012 in order to find missing persons.
The pre-registration rate for children under 18 among
those registered was 49.9 %, which was less than half.
In the case of pre-registration of fingerprints etc.,
it took an average of 56 hours or more in average

The welfare department and the National Police Agency held

It is unknown that the number of adults increasing every year .
33,676 submissions received in the first half alone
95 % return home when received
Priority is given to missing children
Unsolved cases, twice as fast as last year
Location tracking is not available for those over 18 years old .
You must be suspicious of crimes such as abduction and captivity
Survey of call history etc. of mobile phone is possible
"Adults also not apply for the Missing Child Act"
It was just after receiving an investigation at the Prosecutor's Office .
Kim 's family went missing immediately to get out the police .
The police found Kim 's car
on the Gyeonggi-do Namyangju City North Korean gangbyeon,
five days after .
They used 100 people, a search dog and a drone (unmanned aerial vehicle)
in eight times, and carried out a large-scale search, but could not find Kim .
Kim's trace is Grope in the dark .
Officials of the prosecution who investigated Korean-American medicine,
"It doesn't seem to be a suicide," he said.
The police official
"If you are alive at the moment or not
Under investigation assuming both
On the 松坡 （songpa） police station that first received the incident
Adult missing is increasing .
There are 185 people missing every day like Kim.
It is a police report standard.
Adult disappearance can not exclude
the possibility of horrible crimes or suicide.
But most turn out to be simple outings.
The police response is also two-sided .
There is a shortage of human resources to actively intervene,
and it can not be surpassed roughly considering the family that is missing.
Adult missing, unlike children and adolescents missing, legally
it is not easy to receive support such as grasping of location information.
" Adult is missing 95 % simply out of home "
According to the National Police Agency on the 23rd , adults
( 18 years old and over) missing
From 50,000 in 2012
It increased to 63,471 cases last year.
Based on 33,676 calls received until the first half of this year,
it is expected to increase by 5 % from last year.
Adult disappearance statistics exclude people
with dementia and people with intellectual disabilities
who are less able to judge their situation.
While adult disappearances have increased,
children and adolescents have decreased.
The number of missing children under 18 was 27,295 in 2012,
down sharply from 19,428 last year.
The police treats an adult missing person
who is not aware of the possibility of a crime as "going home".
Most begin with household discord.
Officials of the National Police Agency
" If you fight with your family at home, there are more people
who express emotions such as leaving your home immediately,
so the number of missing people increases."
And explained.
The cause of leaving home this year is
"family problems" ( 53.8 %) "
suicide suspicion" ( 17.2 %) "
mental illness" ( 6.3 %) "
Parent withdrawal" ( 5.6 %) "
isomerism problem" ( 5.4 %)
Are analyzed in the order of
Although adult disappearance is serious,
in the police, it is considered as an insignificant thing .
Unlike a missing child or a person with intellectual disability,
if the possibility of a crime does not change,
he is pushed to the back rank .
In fact, 95.3 % of the missing adults submitted last year went home alone
with a simple leave .
There were only 15 missing crimes.
Officials of the front line police station,
"There is a great shortage of personnel to respond to this daily failure report."
"It is difficult and unrealistically difficult to respond positively
to most out of a simple family"
Said.
"Open Issues" skyrocketing
The problem is an unsolved case.
Unresolved cases are increasing rapidly every year .
Last year 1712 cases of disappearances were not resolved .
This year was classified into 1,691 unsolved cases in the first half alone.
Given the fact that there were only 666 unresolved cases in 2012 ,
it is not a passing issue.
Suddenly disappeared in Busan Suyeong-gu this May
A couple in their thirties has been unable to find a place
for more than six months.
Correspondence record query result husband Chung Wei (35)
Mobile phone power is May 28,
In Busan Kijang-gun,
Mrs. Choi (35) 's mobile power supply
On the same day, near Cheonhodong, Seoul
Each was confirmed off,
But the police could no longer track.
At first, it appeared to be a simple outing,
but the incident may also grow.
Such is the case for
“The club girl college student disappearance case near Hongik”.
After drinking alcohol with her friend
in front of Seoul Hongik University on the night of the 14th,
The missing female university student Lee (19),
It was found death in Han River after eight days of missing.
We can not receive legal support such as position information
The missing children law for children and adolescents
(Law on the Protection and Support of Missing Children etc.)
Get legal assistance to be discovered early based on.
It was clearly stated that it would support quick surveys after missing,
location information search, genetic testing, etc.
Adult missing persons are not supported .
Tracking the location of a mobile phone,
which is the first step in searching for a missing person, is also difficult.
Location information method
(law on protection and use of location information)
Based on the location of the phone can only be traced to the absence
of certain persons such as children under the age of 18,
children with disabilities, and patients with dementia.
It is about as long as a missing person is suspected of being a victim
of crime such as abduction or confinement, or a sign of suicide is detected.
The police official
"Mobile phone location tracking is likely to violate privacy
and strict requirements with targets"
Said.
Ann Kyubek and 15 other lawmakers, including Democrats,
have submitted a bill to the National Assembly to include adults aged 18
and over as eligible for the Dismissed Children Act.
The Missing Child Act is not a police agency,
but the Ministry of Health and Welfare is the governing ministry.
The welfare department, of course,
the National Police Agency is showing reluctance.
Officials of the National Police Agency
"If the law passes,
the law enforcement ministries will be changed
to the National Police Agency instead of the welfare department,
but the police will face labor difficulties."
Said.
