Another case of a 'don't ask' assault, in which someone randomly attacks another for no reason and without knowing that person, has occurred, much like the previous case in a which a teenage boy attacked a woman in the elevator with a rock. However, this time, the woman was unfortunately unable to flee and survive.
The Seoul Seocho Police Station revealed on May 17 that they were currently investigating 34-year-old Mr. Kim for murder. The body of a 23-year-old woman was found in the bathroom of a building with three floors in Seocho earlier that day. She had been stabbed to death multiple times.
The police watched the CCTV and discovered that Mr. Kim had entered the building at 11:42 PM the previous night and left right after the crime took place at around 1:05 AM. Mr. Kim is revealed to be an employee at the building where the crime took place. It appears that Mr. Kim hid in the building for about an hour and a half with a weapon he had stolen from the kitchen of a nearby restaurant before following the victim into the bathroom on the landing between the first and second floor and killing her there.
