of this case The suspect is 'Jeong Jae-hwan', born in 2002, who is 24 years old this year. The Gyeongbuk Provincial Police Agency has decided to officially disclose the suspect's personal information, including their real name, age, and mugshot, acknowledging the brutality and severity of the crime.

It is said that Jung Jae-hwan even filed an objection to the decision to disclose his personal information. However, as of July 16, after the five-day grace period ended, their personal information has been officially fully revealed.

 

According to testimonies from acquaintances, he has a history of picking fights with people around him whenever he drank, and making death threats such as breaking glass bottles and holding them to his friends' necks.

 

On the other hand, the victim's friend who tragically passed away was a young man who had completed his military service in the Marine Corps and was preparing for employment. It breaks my heart even more to hear that he was so kind that he was called 'Buddha' among his friends, and was the only friend who accepted Jeong Jae-hwan's violence until the very end.

2. What about Jung Jae-hwan's leaked Instagram photos and school information?

Even before his identity was officially revealed, controversy over vigilante justice arose as Jung Jae-hwan's past photos and pictures of his full-body tattoos were leaked without permission through internet communities and personal crime tip-off social media (Telegram, Instagram, etc.).

 

Jeong Jae-hwan's Instagram address? It is reported that his personal Instagram account is currently private or deleted. Instead, his past photos and profile, heavily covered in tattoos, are circulating on platforms such as the famous crime tip-off Instagram account (@lordsblood) and YouTube channels.

 

Where did Jung Jae-hwan go to school? Specific information regarding his alma mater, such as university or high school, has not yet been clearly revealed by investigative agencies or official portals. Although his educational background has not yet been clearly updated on sites like Namuwiki, it is presumed that he resides near Hayang-eup, Gyeongsan, living in the vicinity of a local university or in an apartment complex.

3. "Aren't I cute?" The chilling full story of the incident and the phone call recording

The incident occurred on the morning of July 4th at an apartment in Hayang-eup, Gyeongsan-si. Jeong Jae-hwan brandished a weapon in a fit of rage when a friend he was drinking with brought up the topic of past dating violence, but decisive evidence has emerged indicating that this was not an accidental incident.

 

At the time, the victim urgently called another friend, A, and a 21-minute phone call recording was made, and the content is truly chilling. Even though the victim begged, "Please stop," Jeong Jae-hwan reportedly continued the crime as if he were joking, laughing and saying, "Aren't I cute?" and "Hahaha."

 

Experts point out that this was absolutely not an impulsive crime committed in a fit of rage, given that the perpetrator continued to laugh and talk even as the victim was slowly suffering and dying for at least six minutes.

 

What is even more shocking is his behavior immediately after the crime. Jung Jae-hwan left his home naked and covered in blood, wandering the streets for an hour. He then confidently entered a nearby convenience store, bought and drank banana milk, and returned to the scene of the crime (the apartment) before being arrested. Currently, despite testing negative for drugs, Jung Jae-hwan is reportedly brazenly claiming diminished capacity during police questioning, stating, "I was drunk and don't remember."

4. Poor initial police response and the anger of the bereaved families

A heated battle over the truth is currently taking place between the victim's family and the police.

 

The bereaved family is expressing their outrage, stating that the police delayed apprehending Jeong Jae-hwan because he was not immediately arrested even though he was naked and covered in blood and walked right in front of a police car, and that ultimately, other friends at the scene had to risk their own safety to catch him.

 

Furthermore, an additional complaint has been filed on charges of 'desecration of a corpse,' alleging that the police failed to conduct a proper investigation despite clear evidence of the victim's body being brutally mutilated.

 

On the other hand, the police countered that they were unaware a murder had occurred because the initial report from the convenience store was merely about an "exhibitionist (naked man) eating without permission," and that their response was not delayed, as they apprehended the suspect at the scene after receiving a second report of murder while tracking bloodstains. They also denied the mutilation of the body, arguing that an analysis of call records and the suspect's movements showed there was no time to do so, so it appears that a fierce legal battle will continue in the upcoming trial.
