In a show of solidarity, over 100 Taiwanese activists attended a press conference on May 14, where Taiwanese activist groups collectively criticized Yuen Foong Yu (YFY Group) and issued three demands: firstly, that the company takes responsibility for the death of Bae Jaey-eong (裴宰炯); secondly, that all dismissals and the factory closure are retracted; and thirdly, that the company takes responsibility for family members affected. 

Taiwan International Workers Association’s Chen Xiu-Lian (陳秀蓮) said that following repeated protests over malicious plant closures by Taiwan-funded enterprise Hydis Technologies, Bae Jaey-eong, deputy president of the Korean Metal Workers’ Union and former union leader of Hydis Technologies was discovered hanging in Mt. Seoraksan National Park, Gangwon Province, South Korea. 

Bae Jaey-eong felt compelled to take his own life following the revelation that Hydis Technologies was on the verge of filing civil and criminal lawsuits against the protesting workers to demand large compensation. He took his own life in order to raise public awareness and express his own protest over the immoral behavior of Hydis Technologies and Yuen Foong Yu.

臺灣聲援Hydis勞工連線等近百人,5月14日上午召開記者會,台灣社運團體集體譴責永豐餘集團,訴求三點,一、針對裴宰炯先生的死亡,公司必須作出懲處,二、撤回關廠、撤回解雇,三、對家屬負起最大責任。

國際勞工協會陳秀蓮表示,5月11日下午,多次來台抗議台資企業Hydis公司惡性關廠,擔任韓國金屬工會Hydis支會資深幹部、曾任支會會長的裴宰炯(배재형),被發現上吊陳屍於江原道的雪嶽山。

裴宰炯被迫自盡的原因在於,Hydis公司近日揚言要對採取抗議行動的員工,提起巨額的賠償訴訟。為了喚醒大眾認識到永豐餘集團與Hydis公司的不正行徑,他選擇結束了自己的生命,表達抗議。
