[Asia Economy Reporter Lee Jung-yoon] An incident occurred in a residential area in Gangnam, Seoul, where an expensive foreign luxury car was damaged, prompting the police to launch an investigation. The damaged vehicle is known to be a Maserati 'Ghibli' model worth about 100 million won.


According to the Gangnam Police Station on the 19th, a report was received that a Maserati car parked in the parking lot of a multi-family house in Nonhyeon-dong, Gangnam-gu, was severely damaged around 7 a.m. the previous day.
