Inside South Korea's Most Notorious Serial Murder: Hwaseong Murders | Catching A Killer - Part 1/2

[@CNAInsider]

After serving 20 years in prison, how was Yoon acquitted and the real killer revealed? Watch more in Part 2 of Catching A Killer: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qqTHd5SJp8eGY9U

[@anastasiskarlis1282]

Imagine arresting a disabled man as a murder suspect when you already have a witness telling you that the murderer is a "GOOD RUNNER !!!! ". I mean this is incompetence of the highest degree.

[@K100-b3e]

Exactly what I was thinking!

[@emilyberdesaix]

They disregard that because of the same blood type and thr titanium in his pubic hair. Their citizen backlash them so they need a scapegoat to finally close the case.

[@lydiawang4481]

I know right how dumb of them

[@souldancersbyjennifer]

Also, perhaps because he was not an immediate witness to a crime, but rather suspicious of him being the criminal, his testimony may not have been taken into consideration.

[@realMoMoPuFF]

I guess, they wanted to close the case and forget about it... It is a common problem with police forces all around the world till this day.

[@ellawest9230]

For those asking why he is not living in fancy house with lot of compensation. He mentions at 27:40 about how he isn't able to adapt to normal life but stuck with prison routine. And on the second part of this video, he says he was afraid to live in outside world. Since he was accused of horrific murder, nobody would welcome him and love him. Furthermore, after 20 years, Korea changed drastically. So, for him to adapt to this new generation, it's going to be tough. I think that is why he has hard time, even with millions of dollar in hand. For us, it's normal to ask why he is not spending this big money. But, in my opinion, for those who went through such trauma, money isn't a cure or answer to their life.

The sad thing about this case is that an innocent man was imprisoned for 20 years for a crime he didn't commit. He (Yoon Sung-Yeo) was only cleared of this false accusations when the killer (Lee Choon-Jae) admitted the crimes. Ironically, Lee is also serving life prison for killing her sister-in-law.

I seriously cannot fathom how Yoon survived those 20 years. The mental strength it requires to still be sane after the harrowing experience is unimaginable. It was outrageous that his disability was even used against him. I hope and pray that only good things will come to him, he deserves so much more. No amount of money can bring back those 20 years. At the very least, I hope the government compensates him well enough.

I feel so sorry for him for losing 20 years of his life of freedom. It is a big trauma. I hope aside from the compensation, the government would pay for his therapy mentally, psychologically so he can move on, pick up the pieces and join the outside world again. Hope he can heal and find peace and happiness.

[@oceanstaiga5928]

The suspect could run well, had this slender face and specific eyes. Mr Yoon had none of that- how in the world did they even consider him??

[@creamthecat9217]

I guess the police were pressured into finding a killer quick and needed a scapegoat

[@EnnaaaS]

Also what I thought of... he wont be able to run that fast if he was the suspect, a fact known by the police...

[@tttiara]

There's an explanation for this but i dont remember it clearly and the resource i have of it is not in english, so.... 🙃 Let me look it up again Update: The 8th victim was found near Yoon's work (Yoon worked in a farming machine equipment workshop).The police found strand of men's pubic hair containing metal from the victim. As a sidenote, DNA test hasn't developed in South Korea back then, so the police using that evidence to carry out the investigation. Police had asked Yoon several times for his pubic hair saying that it's for the investigation. Yoon handed the police his pubic hair willingly, cause he thought it was fine, he wasn't the killer anyway. The police found out that Yoon's pubic hair shape matched of the evidence and contained metal too as he works in the workshop. This is where it went wrong. When the police captured Yoon, Yoon already said many many times that he isn't the killer. The police argued that Yoon entered the victim's house by climbing up a wall, but when they re-create the scene, Yoon can't do it as he walks with a limp that he got when he suffered from polio as a child. The police also argued that the killing was done while squating so they had asked Yoon to squat, he still can't do it cause of the limp. (some details may be incorrect or lost in my description cause english is not my first language, i only translate it from my resource, i suggest you to read further from reliable source)

[@Lovely_Genotiva]

Because his blood type B and has titanium in his hair sample. So thus the others, but he has no family and very poor, that's why he can be a scapegoat. And using his polio they can make Kdrama stories that he hate women due to lack of lovelife.

[@mknojs9143]

back then, or even maybe now.. Police in Korea are known to choose disabled people for crimes when nothing seems to add up in their cases. As Mr Yoon had polio, it was seen to them as a threat, for no reason in my opinion. Same concept as the movie Miracle In Cell No. 7

Terrible. During that time Korea was very politically unstable, and although economically growing by leaps and bounds, in other areas it was still at an underdeveloped country's level.

The man who chased the murdered said that he was so fast and the guy who was falsely accused can't (with all the respect to him) walk properly... how can he be the culprit??

[@tifany8147]

The scenes and analysis from the docu series reminded me of the K drama "Beyond Evil". There were a lot of similarities found on both.

[@poulomi__hari]

It was based on thesw murders

[@automaticchic]

reminds me of the Korean crime series Tunnel.Great show.Must watch👍🏻

[@vickinoeske1154]

It seems that when police are under pressure to solve a crime they are more interested in conviction and punishment than finding the real culprit. While there is the tragedy of the victim there is also the tragedy of the wrongly accused.

[@marclouiepg670]

CNA Insider’s documentaries on Korean cases are a wild ride and very well executed! I loved their feature on the Frog Boys case and now this 😳. Looking forward for more (because I rarely find a True Crime series that tackle Korean cases). Edit (10-31): Netflix recently released The Raincoat Killer: Chasing a Predator in Korea! Haven’t watched it yet tho wkwkkww

[@kkinooo]

same

[@Moodboard39]

Not much documentary on it.

[@ScottMcGoldrick]

Any police officer that is so incompetent at their job should be fired immediately and have to do some sort of prison time, for the 20 years wasted for the poor wrongfully accused man.

YOON WALKS WITH A LIMP WHILE THE KILLER IS A FAST RUNNER -- HOW THE HELL DID THE POLICE COME TO THE CONCLUSION THAT YOON'S THE KILLER OMFG

[@getahaircut7125]

Its amazing how youtube recommend this video to me and i click without hesitation

[@lindin5402]

I've never seen a crime scene investigation that's so scary. This felt like I'm watching a horror movie.

[@myserendipity770]

it always happens to korea watched kokkomu the man inspired by the movie miracle in cell no. 7 he was also wrong fully accused of murder and torture by the police to admit he is guilty he was acquitted 50 years after and never received paid by the government coz they dont want to paid for the past police wrongdoing. and many more story there about police ang government blaming the innocent

[@vividtoto]

Mr Yoon you are such an incredible person. Although you have been wrongly imprisoned for 20 years you didn’t lose hope. There is no bitterness n I hope you will have lots of love around you.

[@hopkin2006]

Why would you be punished for having a clock in prison?

[@4FYTfa8EjYHNXjChe8xs7xmC5pNEtz]

There is no clock in Korean prison. So obviously the prisoner not allow to own clock either.

[@kiaa1229]

when they see some creepy case like this, they always goes "wow, just like a movie", little did they know, most of horror or thriller movie we know, is based on actual event in real life with some modified or improvement..

[@Orthodox1911]

I feel so bad for Yoon Sung-Yeo...The man was born with polio making him disabled, then he was sent to jail for crimes he did not commit. Life not only took his leg or normality if you prefer but also his best years on this earth...Giving him his life back after 20 years...this is just sad...

[@Wammy00]

My heart breaks for Mr. Yoon

[@jessicazhao6796]

Isn't this the case tunnel was inspired by/using in their drama? I don't remember if Signal used this case to, I haven't watched that in years but it reminded me of Signal so. I'm probably wrong on that one..

[@antha0321]

Movie 'memories of murder' > Signal > Tunnel

[@skdavidnba]

Please give Mr Yoon a peaceful life...🕊

[@ruthchoi1341]

In 2019, they found out the blood type was O not B

[@OutragedPufferfish]

This is very interesting, I always wondered how true the movie was to the real events.

[@apotheosis4757]

Humanity committed a grave crime towards Yoon. Those years wasted. He could've married and had kids and a Happy life. Humanity failed him and robbed him of his life!

[@shirleybakes]

Been waiting for thus documentary after someone told me that the real murderer confessed...thank you for doing such a wonderful job of telling the story

[@eahbee2015]

I think he was also featured in the Kdrama Taxi Driver.I just forgot which episode.I felt so sad about the innocent man.I hope the gov't compensated him for wrongly accusing and imprisoning him for that long.

[@leanneandres7678]

They used his illness as a motive for the crime?! All i can say is PUTANGINA i hope Mr. Yoon will be compensated for the rest of his life because what they did was just horrible
