A man has committed murder after squandering his life savings on a female BJ.
The Jeju Seobu Police Station arrested Kang (28) at 10:48pm on the 31st, a day after he murdered a woman Kim (39). Kang approached the victim on a deserted road near Jeju Sioil Market at 6:50pm on the 30th on her way home from work and stabbed her to death. He stole her credit card, 10,000 won bill and cell phone from her wallet. He returned to the scene 5 hours after the crime and tried to dispose of the body when he realized she had died but gave up because it was heavy.
He then disposed of the victim's cell phone in the Jeju sea and stopped at a convenience store and supermarket and purchased 100,000 won worth of food that included chicken legs, strawberry milk and late-night snacks for Rabokki [Ramen+Tteokbokki].
He told police that he accidentally committed the robbery because of "living difficulties" however it was revealed during investigation that he had wandered around the crime scene for 3 days to find a target. It was also revealed that he spent over 10 hours a day since December last year talking to BJs online and took 55 million in loans to send cyber gifts to BJ's.
He was sleeping his truck after running away from his apartment two days before when he could no longer pay rent after his credit card got suspended.
The case has become a hot topic after a petition was posted on Blue House website calling for the disclosure of suspect's personal information and strict investigation into the crime.
The victim's father also posted a petition and stated, "My daughter worked part-time at a small convenience store for 5 hours a day and walked home from work an hour and a half away on foot. I found out after this incident that she walked home everyday to save on transportation expenses."
- [+4,534, -29] Man or woman, BJs that solicit money from people are the worst!
- [+2,887, -229] We need to get rid of Afreeca! That's the only way this will stop.
- [+2,135, -12] I heard from 'Expedition' that she walked an hour and half home in order to save 200,000 won in bus expenses. Apparently she was un-married and saving money to buy clothes for her family because they were poor. He needs to be punished heavily for this.
- [+318, -0] She barely had enough for three meals and he went and bought chicken legs at the convenience store after spending hundreds on BJs. The victim was a part-timer at a convenience store who walked home an hour and a half to save money from taking the bus. Who deserves to die and who deserves to live. Make sure you reveal his identity and hit him with death penalty. Human rights of victims in Korea are clearly not on the same level as these criminals.

- [+181, -9] Ah~ It'd make more sense if he was pissed off at BJs he squandered his money and committed murder. I can understand that. But why do that to an innocent? I feel so sorry..
- [+138, -3] Give him the death penalty! Whether he fell for a pr*stitute or a BJ, we don't care. He murdered an innocent. He needs to be put to death!
- [+124, -23] This is why we need to regulate Afreeca and YouTubers. It's so easy for them to make a quick buck off people showing off their chests in the corner, playing games and chats etc. I've even seen some Pro-Japanese YouTubers instigate pro-Japanese activities. Because of them, kids nowadays don't know the value of hard work.
