On the 28th, an online community post titled "The New Intercity Bus Troublemaker Woman" was uploaded. The author, Mr. A, said, "I used to only hear about such crazy people through news articles, but seeing it in person left me speechless," and shared a video capturing the incident.

According to the post, the incident occurred around 6:20 PM on the 23rd inside an intercity bus departing from Jamsil Intercity Transfer Center heading towards Gyeonggi Province. Since standing passengers are prohibited on intercity buses, the driver only allows as many passengers as there are seats. This bus also boarded passengers according to the number of seats. However, a male passenger was unable to sit because the woman sitting ahead had placed her luggage on the adjacent seat and refused to move it.

In the video, the woman refuses to move her luggage despite requests from the male passenger and the bus driver, saying, "I have too much luggage." The driver, unable to tolerate the situation, repeatedly asked, "Please move your luggage. If you won't, please get off the bus." The woman responded, "If there are no seats, you shouldn't take passengers," to which the driver replied, "We only took as many passengers as there are seats."

Mr. B, who was filming the woman's disruptive behavior, pointed out, "How can you put your belongings on a seat meant for a person?" But the woman retorted, "My luggage is heavy, what can I do?" and "If there are no seats, you should take fewer passengers."

The male passenger who was trying to sit next to the woman also tried to persuade her by saying, "The driver is asking you to move your luggage. I want to sit down," and "Standing is prohibited, so we have to sit," but the woman consistently refused to move her luggage.

Eventually, the bus driver stopped the bus briefly and approached the woman to touch her luggage, but she said, "Don't touch my belongings," and then made a phone call somewhere. After explaining her situation at length, she asked, "Can I call the police?" Passengers on the bus protested with comments like, "Take a taxi," "Everyone is suffering because of this lady," and "We live in a society where we should consider others, but she only thinks of herself," but the woman reportedly never moved her luggage.

Mr. A said, "The male passenger ended up sitting on the bus stairs because there was no seat available," and added, "She didn't seem to understand the explanation from the start."

Netizens who saw the video reacted with comments such as, "She probably doesn't even realize she's causing trouble," "She acts proud of taking up two seats and yells with her head held high," "It's scary when an ignorant person has strong beliefs," and "Does she even know what 'no standing passengers' means?"
