The Seoul Metropolitan Police Agency on the 1st decided to disclose the personal information of Kim Sang-soo, a suspect in his 30s who is being investigated for murder charges. This is because the suspect's crime is extremely heinous, and the police determined that there is a need to inform the public about his identity to prevent a similar case from happening again. According to the police, the suspect, Kim Sang-soo, on the 31st of last month, committed a murder by strangling his 30-year-old ex-girlfriend to death at a motel in Gangnam-gu, Seoul. The police confirmed that the suspect had been stalking his ex-girlfriend and was sent to the prosecution on the 28th of last month on charges of stalking, and was under investigation. The police said, "The suspect had been dissatisfied with the fact that the stalking case was sent to the prosecution, and it appears that he committed the murder in a state of extreme anger and hatred toward the victim." The police also revealed that Kim Sang-soo had made threatening remarks to his ex-girlfriend on social media, saying, "If you don't meet me, I will ruin you."
