A man holding a black plastic bag walks calmly somewhere while looking at his smartphone.

He is Jeong, a Chinese university lecturer in his 30s, who is accused of murdering a female Chinese international student.

A moment later, Jeong arrives at a garbage collection area.

Police believe that this plastic bag contained parts of the victim's body.

This is the road in front of Jeong's home.

Having abandoned the body at a garbage collection site just 100 meters away from his home, Jeong is accused of scattering body parts not only there but also across various locations nationwide, including the Bomun Complex in Gyeongju and Gyeonggi Province.

Jeong is reportedly claiming that he was in a romantic relationship with the deceased woman.

However, the victim's family members have pushed back, stating that she had a boyfriend in China.

The possibility of stalking-related crimes cannot be ruled out.

The court issued an arrest warrant for Jeong during his pre-trial detention hearing, citing concerns that he might flee.

Finding it suspicious that only parts of the victim's body remained inside the house and that Jeong immediately filed a missing person report with the police after abandoning the body, the police are considering conducting a psychopathy test on Jeong.
