How South Korea's Deadliest Serial Killer Was Finally Identified - Video

???? The Cold Case That Haunted a Nation | Lee Chun-jae Documentary✦ Welcome to Hidden in Plain Sight FilesBetween 1986 and 1991, ten women were raped and murdered in the rural countryside around Hwaseong, South Korea. The investigation became the largest in Korean history — over two million police shifts, twenty-one thousand suspects, zero convictions. For thirty-three years, the case defined national failure.
