| The late Park |
Park was on his way home after morning hiking when a Teracan ran over him at a crossroads near Suseo Station in southern Seoul around 6:30 a.m. It is immediately unclear whether he was crossing at green lights.
Park was immediately taken to a nearby hospital, but died while receiving an operation, police said.
Park, born in Busan, started his career after passing a state bar exam in 1978 while attending Seoul National University.
He served as the head of Daejeon High Court before being appointed to head the training institute last year.
