Two foreign laborers on the ground level, who were injured when a hoist crashed at the construction site in Sokcho, Gangwon Province, were transferred to a hospital, but they soon disappeared, police said Wednesday.
Police suspect the two foreign nationals in their 40s were in Korea illegally and left the hospital out of concern their undocumented status would be revealed.
“We are looking for the people who hired them or brokered their employment,” the police said.
Police are searching for the missing workers together with the immigration office.
