Yes, Park Hak-sun, who is accused of killing the woman he was dating and her daughter, was sentenced to life imprisonment in the first trial.

Park has claimed to be an accidental crime until the court.

However, the court judged that the method was persistent and brutal, saying that considering the situation at the time and before the crime, it could be seen as a premeditated murder.

At the same time, Park's crime is highly likely to be criticized in light of the growing awareness of social violence and the need for severe punishment.

Also, Park said, "There is still a lack of serious reflection or recognition of problems," adding that no mental or physical weakness was found.

Park was accused of killing a woman in her 60s and her daughter in her 30s at an officetel in Gangnam, Seoul, in late May.

Park visited the office when the victim's family was notified of the breakup for opposing the relationship, and killed her daughter first and then killed the woman who ran away.

After the crime, he ran away and was arrested by police within 13 hours,
It was found that
also committed crimes on a planned basis, such as calling his common-law spouse on a public phone and asking if the police were tracking him.

Since then, in June, personal information such as Park's mugshot, name, and age were released due to the cruelty of the crime and the seriousness of the damage.

A little later, the victim's bereaved family holds a press conference.

I'll get back to you with the details as soon as they come in.
