SBS "Curious Stories Y" is tracking the suspicious actions of a young man who wanders around neighborhoods begging and habitually reports neighbors who help him to the police.
In the broadcast of SBS "Curious Stories Y" on the 11th, the program sheds light on the reality of a 20-year-old man who exploits the goodwill of citizens by pleading unfortunate circumstances and then repeatedly files reports for assault and other charges.
Last August, a resident met a young man with a trembling voice who showed his ID card, claiming he was homeless and had not eaten anything for two days. Moved by his pitiful story of losing his parents at an early age, the resident gave him food, but before long, shocking rumors began to circulate in the neighborhood that the young man had reported the resident who bought him a meal for assault.
While the young man habitually continued to beg, he also intentionally provoked situations leading to police dispatch. It was confirmed that the local police precinct even distributed flyers advising caution regarding the young man.
With over thirty tips submitted to the production team of "Curious Stories Y," it was revealed that the man changed his stories depending on the person, capitalizing on misfortunes such as the death of his parents or divorce. Attention is focused on why he turns around and reports citizens who extended helping hands with pure hearts, and what the truth is behind the misfortunes the young man claims.
The true face and hidden intentions of the begging young man sending a precarious SOS while wandering the streets will be revealed on "Curious Stories Y," airing at 8:50 PM on the 11th.
