Bullshit. If somebody actually died here it's an atrocious way to report it.

An unnamed man. An unnamed plant owner.

Story apparently from Yonhap, one of the largest news networks, but no link.

Apparently the second such incident, but no mention of what the first was.

Editendum: BBC reporting [0] on it somewhat calmly gives the core story some credibility.

https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-67354709 also quotes "South Korean news agency Yonhap", and quotes statements from "the Donggoseong Export Agricultural Complex, which owns the plant" - and gives "In March, a South Korean man in his 50s suffered serious injuries after getting trapped by a robot while working at an automobile parts manufacturing plant" as additional detail of the previous incident. (That may not be enough to find earlier articles, or maybe they're just eclipsed by the current one.)

possibly the korean reporters didn't want the man's family to find out by watching the evening news
