Bae, a man in his 30s who headed the New Men's Solidarity, was found dead at around 8:00 a.m. today (the 5th) in the garden of an apartment complex in Yeongjongdo, Incheon.
Based on closed-circuit television (CCTV) footage and other evidence from the scene, police believe there is no foul play and that Bae took his own life at his residence, and are currently investigating the exact circumstances of his death.
No suicide note has been found thus far.
Police plan to request an autopsy on Bae's body from the National Forensic Service to determine the exact cause of death.
Bae, who served as the head of the New Men's Solidarity—a far-right organization that led rallies opposing the impeachment of former President Yoon Suk Yeol—was investigated by police last May after allegedly taking philopon (methamphetamine) at a motel in Incheon.
