Three college students were killed in a tragic accident while returning home after filming a movie.


According to Yonhap News and the Anseong Police Station, the collision occurred at 4:50 a.m. on August 11 on National Route 38, across from Dong-Ah Broadcasting Arts University in Samjuk-myeon, Anseong.


The accident happened when a 20-year-old student, identified as A, was driving an Orlando vehicle and, for unknown reasons, crossed the center line, colliding head-on with an oncoming dump truck.


In the crash, A, along with two passengers in the back seat—B, a male student, and C, a female student, both in their 20s and studying broadcasting at Dong-Ah Broadcasting Arts University—lost their lives.


B and C were returning home after completing a film shoot with about 20 other students in Anseong, while A, who attended a different university with a similar major, was driving them.


The police noted that the damage to the vehicles was severe, making it difficult to determine whether a black box was present in A's vehicle. The dump truck did not have a black box installed, prompting authorities to secure nearby CCTV footage for investigation.


The dump truck driver reported to the police that the Orlando vehicle had crossed the center line.
