Seodaejeon Negeori Station (Korean: 서대전네거리역; Hanja: 西大田네거리驛) is a station of Daejeon Metro Line 1 in Yongdu-dong, Jung District, Daejeon, South Korea.
Elevator incident
This subway station was the site of a man in a wheelchair who rammed the doors of an elevator multiple times, and eventually fell to his death after he disabled both doors.[1][2] He was awarded a Darwin Award[3] and elevators in South Korean subway stations later started to install stickers telling not to do that action.
