A suspect suspected of murdering a woman in her 20s whom she first met through an online tutoring app in Busan and tampering with and disposing of her body has been identified as Jung Jeong-jeong, a 23-year-old woman먹튀검증.
The Busan National Police Agency held a review committee on the disclosure of biographical information on the 1st and decided to release Jung’s face, name, and age. Seven experts, including four external members and three internal members of the police, participated in the review committee.
The committee considered the brutality of the crime, the possibility of recidivism, and the public’s right to know before deciding whether to release the information. This is the first time the Busan National Police Agency has decided to disclose the identity of a suspect since October 2015, when it released the face of Hong Mo-soo in the ‘Busan Seomyeon gunman’ case.
Mr. A confessed to the crime during a police investigation on March 31, saying, “I had a murderous urge and wanted to try it out.”
Previously, Jung had stated that he had “accidentally committed the crime while arguing with the victim,” but he reportedly had a change of heart due to relevant evidence and persuasion from his family. Mr. Jung’s statement revealed that it was a “planned crime.
On March 26 at 5:30 p.m., Jung allegedly went to the woman’s home in Geumjeong-gu, Busan, and pretended to talk to her for a while before brandishing the weapon. The victim was defenseless and was reportedly stabbed multiple times.

Chung then stopped by a supermarket to purchase a weapon that could be used to mutilate the body before returning to his home and taking the suitcase back to the victim’s home. After mutilating the body at the victim’s home, Jung put the body parts in a suitcase and dumped them near the Nakdong River in Yangsan, Gyeongnam.
A taxi driver who was driving Jung at the time became suspicious of the bloodstained suitcase being dumped in the woods in the early morning hours and called the police. Police found part of the body and the victim’s ID in the suitcase and made an emergency arrest of Chung at 6 a.m. on July 27. The rest of the body was reportedly found at the victim’s home.
