"I Think She's Dead"... Shocking Home Cam Footage of Woman Found Dead in Semi-Basement Home

[Actual 119 Emergency Call Audio (June 20, 2026): What do I do, I think she's dead. Please live, please live. What do I do, pull yourself together.]

The true nature of a man who brutally beat his live-in girlfriend more than 500 times, leading to her death, has been revealed, sending shockwaves through the public.

Last June, an emergency report was filed stating that a woman in her 20s had lost consciousness at a semi-basement home in Gangseo-gu, Seoul.

Emergency responders and police rushed to the scene, but the woman was already in a state of cardiac arrest. The man who made the call confessed to the crime on the spot, admitting that he had beaten his girlfriend and showing the weapon he used.

[Police: What? You hit her with a hammer? Where was this? What kind of hammer is this?]

[Suspect: It was over there, something we had. I hit her countless times here with the handle, and I also hit her with my legs and my fists.]

An autopsy revealed that the woman suffered 21 fractured ribs and ruptured major organs. Home security cameras installed inside the house captured shocking footage of the victim being subjected to a brutal assault lasting over three hours.

[(I'm sorry) Lie face down (I'm sorry) Lie face down. Do you want your hand broken? Lie face down (Ah, I'm sorry)]

The man subjected her to indiscriminate violence over absurd reasons, such as failing to fold up a sunshade properly.

[You didn't fold this all the way up? (I was trying to fold it) You didn't fold it all the way up? (Ah...) You didn't fold it all the way up? (I'm sorry) You didn't fold it all the way up? I told you not to put on a show, and you're doing it again? You son of a bitch! You're putting on a show again?]

While admitting to the assault, the suspect claimed he had no intention of killing her and that he attacked her impulsively because he could no longer tolerate her lying. After reviewing the footage, an expert analyzed that the suspect "assaulted the victim with chilling calmness without showing significant emotional disturbance," pointing to long-term gaslighting.

[What are you going to do about this? Are you going to fix your lying or not? That's all I want to know. Will you fix your lying? Or not? Not just 'I will fix it,' but can you actually fix it or not? Answer me that. If you can't, then just die. If you can't fix it, stay like that. I'll come back out in two hours. No, just stay like that until you die (Please give me a chance, I'm sorry)]

During the process of analyzing the suspect's cell phone, producers from the SBS program Unanswered Questions found that the word "gukpeu" appeared repeatedly. The suspect explained that it was "a rule made to fight less with his girlfriend."

However, this communication guideline contained phrases that were difficult to view as rules for conflict resolution, revealing that the suspect exerted psychological pressure by controlling the victim's actions and words.

[Lie down. If you don't lie down, I'll kill you. I'm really going to beat you until you die. If you want to die, lie down and die. I'll kill you, lie down. This is your last chance. You're going to die now.]

[Professor Choi Lee-moon / Korean National Police University, Department of Criminal Psychology: In reality, he often feels deeply disrespected or experiences failure every time he tries to do something. Despite that, he wants to feel like a very important person by implementing control over at least this woman.]

The suspect is currently in custody and is reportedly appealing to the court for leniency by writing multiple letters of reflection and citing childhood trauma from domestic violence.

Netizens who came across the case expressed intense outrage, leaving comments such as, "Disclose his identity immediately and sentence him to death" and "This is the most shocking case I have ever seen."
